Alex Blackmore

I have over 10 years of experience working in the film/TV industry, both on-set, on the rental side, and in education. As such I am capable of scaling work flexibly and efficiently to suit a variety of scenarios, and specialise in the management of equipment inventory and maintenance. 

Always up for a challenge, and keen on developing positive working relationships.

In my career I have variously been responsible for the maintenance, preparation and on-set technical support of remote fixtures, dimming systems, desks and underwater lighting. This includes equipment such as ARRI Maxmover stirrups, LRX robotic heads, AVOLITES racks, underwater lighting systems, fog & haze machines, UV lighting, high power strobes and a variety of desks ranging from basic boards to some of the latest systems.

I have run teams of up to 24 members of staff (consisting of a mix of full-time and freelancers), and have a wide array of experience with different asset management systems - both cloud based, and local/remote server.

Outside of work, I own and maintain a large quantity of camera and lighting equipment. In my spare time I enjoy repairing and restoring old broadcast lights and protyping my own equipment designs. I am an avid 3D printer and own a variety of different 3D printers.
