All the gear but no idea? Don’t fret! We have an incredibly talented team ready to jump on your shoot

FRANK

GAFFER, DOP & Ginger

Lights? Yes!

Camera? Certainly?

Action? No, Frank is far too anxious to do action based activities.

Frank is the head honcho here at CFL (he puts the “F” in “CFL”), and also works as a freelance lighting gaffer and cinematographer and directs and produces for Head Start Productions.

His favourite film is No Country for Old Men, and in his free time he likes to make music, play video games and attempts to play tennis (but sometimes, tennis is too much action).

CIARAN

DOP & Lover of the internet

The man with more lenses than friends.

Ciaran is a London-based cinematographer who has been shooting long-form narrative, commercials and music promos for well over a decade, mainly because he is incredibly old.

Ciaran has a wealth of knowledge from working on larger sets, but loves to push what is possible at any budget. Ciaran’s approach is extremely collaborative, because he’s really keen to make more friends.

His commercial work in particular has won a range of accolades, including a Bronze Cannes Lion and ‘Best Commercial Short Film’ at the British Short Film Awards.

Want to get in touch with Ciaran? Or help fill the room at his next birthday? (He’s a bit worried about the numbers)

RUBY

DOP, CAMERA ASSISTANT & Cat person

Ruby is this team’s diversity card who also happens to be a passionate and capable cinematographer. They love anything whimsical and will take on any project with enthusiasm no matter how weird it is.

Ruby has a particular interest in music videos as well as extensive historical knowledge of the art form and can name any song within a second of it being played.
