Ryan Early
Director of Photography, Video Producer and Editor, Director and Script consultant
I now have over twenty five years experience in video production as cameraman, editor and producer and having worked for many television networks throughout my career I’ve produced an extensive range of work. As I get older I like to think that this big bag of experience is also filled with tricks and techniques I have learned, all of which make for a better end result for my clients. We have a production van full of camera gear but it’s really that hard won bag of tricks my clients benefit from.
I’ve been honored to also win several industry awards including best documentary at the Queensland Multi Media Awards for a broadcast documentary entitled “Journey of Friends” broadcast on the Win network as well as several Australian Cinematography awards.
Working in television news taught me the power of story telling and also to work fast, as the demand for video content grows I bring my story telling ability, my cinematographers eye and my editing skills to help clients tell stories that are effective.
