John E Fry

The main producer & director at FryFilm, John has almost 10 years experience working in features, documentaries, corporates, outside broadcasts & TV. His career began as a lighting cameraman but soon progressed into what has become his real passion: Steadicam Operating. As the number of corporate videos we produce has increased John has moved into directing & producing as well, but you will usually find him behind a lens. He has even had some notable turns at presenting, mainly on travel documenatries but also on local TV news and DVDs. John concentrates hard on making every job go as smoothly and as efficiently as possible whatever his role, and his keen sense of humour and good common sense help create a friendly and very productive atmosphere.

Filming has taken John to many parts of the world, including much of Europe and even Hollywood shooting a documentary on ledgendary film directors. Multicamera work has also been an expanding area of expertise, in which John has been employed as camera operator by Vodafone, IBM, Rock Steadi Pictures (for which he also flys Steadicam) and regularly shoots many concerts & events in the south west, all now with our 4:2:2 HD OB kit. Thanks to his passion for skiing, John is now a vetern Ski Cameraman, capturing action on and off the slopes with style and reliabilty. Vision mixing is an area John also has some experience in, and for smaller events & broadcasts he can often be found as much in the gallery as on camera. Be assured that if John is filming for you, be it as cameraman, as DoP, or on Steadicam, you will receive motion pictures of the very highest standard, and enjoy the process of aquiring them.

Mark Bloor

Mark is a veteran multicamera specialist who trained as a broadcast engineer but aslo has directed many OB shoots & produced many of our multicamera jobs. His technical knowledge is second to none.

Having recently refitted & upgraded the outside broadcast trailer for full HD live switching, pro-audio mixing & a fantastic new gallery setup, Mark is ready to tackle up to six broadcast HD camera feeds for whatever event, concert, multicam drama or stage show you need covered. If you're lucky he might even tell you about his first video recorder - that took up a whole room!

Brian Cleckner

Brian is a passionate and meticulous video editor and a charming and inspiring presenter. What he doesn't know how to do in Final Cut Pro is not worth knowing, and his working knowledge of other editing systems make him a highly useful and adaptive video editor.

From editing & presenting local news Brian is just as happy working on broadcast and especially high level corporate videos, always managing to turn even the least exciting subjects into interesting and engaging films. In front of the camera Brian is an instantly likable and lively character, suited to almost any subject thanks to the time he takes to throroughly understand the subject matter and ability to adapt his style to suit.

Brian Mayor

Brian started his career as a cameraman but swiftly graduated to broadcast engineer and generally-very-useful chap through his now vast eperience with multicamera setups and outside broadcasting. When working with him he makes you feel as if nothing is too difficult or unachievable, and can find a way to make things happen through straight forward lateral thinking, in and outide of the box!

Brian is an asset to any production, with technical knowledge and problem solving abilities second to none - and he's still a very good cameraman!
