TV / Media Support Work
Alex has often
been contracted to work on TV or film projects as a Safety Diver
for any location shoot that is based in or around water.
Ensuring the safety of the artists, stunt doubles and the crew
is crucial at all times. Logistics, negotiation and
co-operation are absolutely essential elements to achieve the
smooth running of this type of operation. The most
memorable credits include :
Coronation Street's credits include a
burger van on fire heading into a lake; a mobility buggy falling
in the canal; children falling from a fishing boat into a
lake; and father and son having a punch up in and out of the
water!
Hollyoaks'
credit
was a fisherman falling into the canal; and a parachutist landing
in a private swimming pool.
Mischief Nights was to ensure the
safety of the cast and crew around a lake during a night shoot.
