CHRIS ELLIOTT

I've been working in commercial film and video production for over 15 years as a camera operator, director, editor and filmmaker.  I specialise in shooting short-form documentaries, branded content, commercials, high-end promotional films and multi-camera broadcasts.
 
In 2016 I Co-Founded SOUND&COLOUR; We're a Stockport based production company that produces beautifully crafted films for marketing brands and businesses.
 
I love human interest stories and making content that captures an audience's imagination, that's why I love shooting documentary style films; at the end of the process I always feel like I've learned something new. 
 
My passion is my craft and I approach each shoot with the same meticulous attention to detail that helps me deliver great work.

SERVICES

If you're looking for a skilled shooting-director or camera operator with experience working with major brands and directing top-level talent, I can help develop your concept right through production to delivery and bring your ideas to life.

With my production company SOUND&COLOUR we provide full-service video production to clients and agencies; specialising in beautifully crafted promotional films, branded content and documentaries.

I also work freelance as a shooting-director, camera operator & video editor for some of the country's best production companies and broadcasters. I'm a confident director and self-shooter, which allows me to get the best from contributors. My experience as an editor means I'm always shooting with the finished film in mind.
