Keep on moving

I'm finishing up out here in Africa, back to the UK for a few days then off to Afghanistan to embed with the Americans for Sky News. A load of interesting projects are on the horizon so juggling them all and seeing my family are going to be trying.I found this article in the Producer magazine, which I had forgotten about doing on the "Long Way Down". Thats on air now and I still haven't seen any of it....

On the road again..

I'm back on the road again, this time Africa for a few weeks, then Afghanistan again. After a good family break its time to shoot some grown up stuff again..

Long Way Down Finished

I'm back from the "Long Way Down" and been recovering from a strange event!! My wife has had a baby boy, Thomas Edward Foster, so am enjoying that for a change.
I'm possibly off to Burma, then Iraq again and who knows what, but I'll try and update more regularly and upload some film.

Long way down update

Well I'm still on the road with the Long Way Down,about half way through.. All is well so far and the kit is holding up,just..

The Long Way Down

I have been back and forward to Iraq and Afghanistan and am now on "The Long Way Down' with Ewan MacGregor and Charlie Boorman, going from John O'Groats to Cape Town we hope and arriving in August some time...
I am using Canon XL-H1's which are great at the moment and lenses superb.
Check out the BBC websites and www.thelongwaydown.com for our progress.

Back in Iraq

I'm back in Iraq, working for Sky News with Stuart Ramsay doing embeds with the US Marines in the Falluja /Ramadi area of Anbar province. These packages should be on air between the 12-18 March. Its then off back to Afghanistan and then start on "The Long Way Down" with Ewan MacGregor and Charlie Boorman which will take us from John O'Groats to Cape Town, so a busy year ahead.
I will up load some more movies when I get a chance, like 'The Generals War" ,with the Director Olly Lambert and Hugh Hughes which I did for October Films/BBC 2 and went out a week ago to good reviews.

News reports and Documentary stuff

This is a collection of News reports and clips dating back to before the gulf war.It includes Sky News with Peter Sharp,C4 Dispatches in the Congo with Sam Kiley and a BBC This World programme called "One Day of War". Unfortunately I've had to really reduce the quality.

Guns for Hire - Congo

This one of 2 films I did with Claudio Von Planta and Sam Kiley about former soldiers and their new careers.

2007 So Far

This is an attempt to try and keep my website up to date,and I'm new to this lark so bear with me....
So far this year after a long stint in Afghanistan doing a film for BBC 2 about NATO , which should be on air around the 1st of March .I've been back to Beirut to do a follow up on the war last year with Tim Marshall at SKY NEWS. We were then nominated for our coverage of the war, I did all the stuff in Tyre and the south, at the Broadcast awards.Now I'm running around preparing for the 'The Long Way Down" with Ewan MacGregor and Charlie Boorman and then off back to Iraq for Sky again in March to do some unusual embeds etc.
