ITV Productions provide studio, location, post and graphics facilities to ITV, BBC and Independent clients.  It comprises 3sixtymedia, located at The Manchester Studios, together with The Leeds Studios, ProVision, Film Lab North and The Finishing School in Yorkshire.

Paul's responsibilities include the sales and marketing, planning and co-ordination for the five Manchester and Leeds business areas, with particular emphasis on studio operations.

Previously, Paul was Controller of Operations at Carlton Studios (this included post production) and held a number of other management roles for Carlton/Central. His  original training was as a Sound Technician at ATV's Elstree Studios.

Paul's opinion is that the association is a very effective communication forum, supplying succinct information and providing strong representation. He is keen to see a wider more diverse membership and is particularly interested in suitable industry education and training.
