If behind the scenes are your thing...
Its not always easy to understand what I do and what I offer, I do love behind the scenes images and video, so take a look below at these shots and maybe help you understand a little bit more about what I do and what I offer. If you want more then head over to Instagram @ DomWhitingMedia for updates and new BTS all the time.
About Dom
I don't like to brag but apparently in this section about me, I have to. So let's do it. I am a person who loves tech and I've always been a 'behind the scenes' kind of guy. So what job better than a Camera Op, I live behind the scenes and it's all about technology. I found myself falling into this industry as a child studying my GCSE and then into A Levels where I found myself applying for University. Anyway jump forward a little bit and I was building a clientele of corporate clients creating videos for them.
As time has gone on I've developed my skills as a Camera Operator, invested into a lot of equipment and love making videos. Seeing the videos I've made in the real world is an incredible feeling. I use to juggle the whole video production process, but as time has gone on, I have discovered I am best suited and most happiest behind the camera. And thats why you'll find me here offering myself as a Freelance Cam Op. So lets work together!
Useful legal bits
If you've made it this far I'd like to make you aware of a few things;
Public Liability
As a freelance Camera op I come with £5m Public Liability insurance for peace of mind.
Driving
I'd like you to know I have a full UK Driving license with zero points. I also drive my own car with full insurance including equipment.
Insurance
All of the equipment listed above is insured making a shoot day with me stress free and covered.
