Alex Robinson

I am a highly motivated and hardworking individual. I was inspired when at 16 I did two weeks work experience with a Location Director on the BBC series Silent Witness. While studying for my A Levels I was lucky enough to gain further work experience working one day a week and school holidays at Panavision in Leavesden. When I finished my education, I accepted the offer of a contract with Panavision at both Leavesden and Greenford. I worked during the day at Panavision while attending college in the evenings to gain my Level 2 Diploma in Electrical Installation and Science. This experience has given me product knowledge of the latest industry equipment and an insight into the different areas and opportunities within the industry. I have a methodical approach to work and an eagerness to learn and develop personal skills in a practical setting. I am a positive person who likes to solve and overcome objectives that are placed in my way. I was working as a Runner on a short film when the Gaffa saw where my skill set was, he then referred me to a grip colleague. I have since been working as a Trainee Grip on two TV Dramas.
