Alan has worked as a cameraman for over 25 years and has experience in many types of programme. He was entered for an Emmy for "Ray Mears' Extreme Survival - Namibia" and received Certificates of Merit from The Guild of Television Cameramen for "Madhur Jaffrey's Flavors of India" and "Ray Mears Bushcraft - Aboriginal Britain". Alan also shot the film of the winning book for "The Big Read" - Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings". Alan was director of photography on two series of The Bachelor and Hunting Chris Ryan in Botswana. He has also contributed to, and edited The Guilds of Television Cameraman's magazine and lectured in camera techniques and lighting at BBC Wood Norton, BBC Elstree, BBC Birmingham, The Production Show and at Birmingham University. Alan filmed in New Zealand with Stephen Fry and Mark Carwardine on BBC TV's "Last Chance To See", and with Ray Mears for his series "Northern Wilderness" in the Canadian Rockies and the Pacific coast. Unfortunatley the injuries sustained in his helicopter accident have made it increasingly difficult for Alan to continue working as a cameraman. He continues to lecture and give talks for charitable organisations and groups.
