James Cooper – Editor 50 Strafford Road, Barnet, Herts, EN5 4LR James Cooper 07961 137 117 [email protected] Freelance Editor jamescooper-editor.co.uk www.thetalentmanager.co.uk/talent/20054/james-cooper Film Editor I am a creative and enthusiastic editor with over 17 years experience in the cutting room. Having started esout as a staff editor at Coopera London post-production facility, I became freelance in 2001 and have subsequently worked on a wide range of productions. The bulk of my credits are in the field of documentary and factual, although I've also cut dramas, comedy, promos and commercials. My many years of experience has meant I have built a strong reputation for being a safe pair of hands in the edit – taking direction or taking the lead as required. I am good at finding a story in a sea of rushes, and pride myself in having a creative eye, a strong ear for music, and a clear head for structure. I also love cutting the funny stuff. I am skilled in all versions of Avid specialising in offline editing, although I do have previous online and grading experience. I also have my own Final Cut Pro 7 editing kit.

  • RED Production and the Cultural Politics of Place1 Andrew Spicer My Work for Channel 4 Is Driven Not by Ad
    A Regional Company? RED Production and the Cultural Politics of Place1 Andrew Spicer My work for Channel 4 is driven not by a dull plea for regional television, but for the more exhilarating thought that some of Britain’s best companies work from a regional base in creative cities far from London. We work in an industry that seems myopically obsessed with one creative city – London. It would be a great step forward if regulators and broadcasters could escape from this deeply parochial mindset. (Cosgrove in Kidd and Taylor 2002: 27). Our fundamental DNA is Mancunian. We’re a Manchester company in every sense. We were established here. We film here primarily. We’re based here, our offices are here. Most of our work is done here. We’re not interlopers who move in and out, or who open a brass-door company … and I think that impacts on our work and our taste and the things we make as well. (RED CEO Nicola Shindler, interview, May 2018). Introduction The first epigraph above is the voice of Stuart Cosgrove in 2002 in his then role as Channel 4’s Head of Programmes, Nations and Regions advocating the importance of regional television production. Cosgrove identified RED Production in Manchester as one of a select number of small, dynamic companies that ‘by their nature, are closer to ideas, popular influences and cultural change’, which need to be nurtured and supported if the notorious metropolitan bias of UK broadcasting is to be challenged and a broad and diverse production base maintained. Fifteen years later, several of the other companies Cosgrove mentioned have folded but RED has continued to thrive to become the largest and most important television drama production company based outside London, and whose core identity, as its CEO Nicola Shindler makes clear, is Mancunian.

    Written evidence submitted by Indie Club THE FUTURE OF PSBs Indie Club Introduction & Background: Indie Club represents independent television production companies based outside London, so our members are keen to ensure the PSBs continue to commission programmes which support production bases around the whole country, as they are required to do under the Communications Act 2003. In the ten years leading up to 2018, Indie Club discovered many TV productions were being declared by the PSBs as having been produced in different places around the UK, but were actually being mainly made in London. Some TV production companies were even bringing runners up from London to Manchester rather than employing young people locally. The majority of jobs created and money generated by these productions was benefitting only the capital city and not the country as a whole. This was particularly the case with Channel 4 productions, as the previous senior management team had worked out a clever way of bypassing Ofcom’s regulation of the Communications Act 2003. As a consequence the TV industry as a whole was becoming more and more upper middle class and less meritocratic, as people living outside the capital found it increasingly difficult to get jobs and find consistent, year-round work in the industry. The vast majority of key editorial decisions on programmes across all the PSBs were being made in London, which left the rest of the country feeling television was out of touch with the way most British people live and think. Indie Club therefore led a successful campaign in June 2018, asking Ofcom to tighten the regulations around programmes made outside London, to ensure each production both created jobs in the nations and regions, and also left an economic legacy, which is what the Communications Act 2003 intended.
