JOE HALLGATE
​
Lighting Camera | Camera Operator
My career in this industry started at the Roundhouse in Camden where I became a part of the live broadcast crew, operating on a number of high profile events including live streams of British Sea Power, Gomez, Bianco: No Fit State Circus and the English National Opera's production of Orfeo.
Working for the last 10 years, I have built my experience and a strong client base and am now comfortable in almost any shooting scenario. One of my earliest assignments was in China creating promotional films for Tom Davies eyewear and since then I have worked on content for Sky Arts and BBC4, TVC's for brands such as Kurio and Moshi Monsters, promotional films for exhibitions at the Barbican Centre, music videos, various short films and a feature film that involved me spending two weeks in a muddy trench. All of these experiences have led to me being able to quickly adapt my working style in order to get the most out of any situation.
My passion is observational documentary, and I was recently lucky enough to work with director Sonita Gale on her production 'Voices From Isolation' looking at marginalised minority groups and how Covid has impacted their lives. It is scheduled for release in May 2021 and I look forward to updating my site once it is out!
