Definitely my no.1 choice for freelance videographer in the midlands UK. Dan was not only able to take up the very short notice filming job I needed him to do for me, but also did it dilligently, professionaly, with a great result, and was super easy to communicate with throughout the project, as well as extremely punctual in footage logistics and invoicing. Thanks, Dan!

I recently hired Dan for a shoot and he was brilliant from start to finish. He stuck to the brief and the footage he captured was exactly what we were looking for! I'd highly recommend Dan for any cam op jobs, More...

We asked Dan to film our annual conference which took place in Birmingham in May 2023 over two days. Our requirements were quite specific with what we wanted both covering the workshops and creating vox pops that we could then use within our marketing. Dan & Phil were extremely professional and friendly throughout the whole event. They delivered everything as requested within the timeframe discussed and to the quality we needed. More...

Dan is an absolutely safe, solid pair of hands with the creative flair needed for our work. At Vermillion Films we've been using Dan for many of our highly-varied, filming requirements for several years now and we're more than happy to recommend him. It's always really reassuring to see Dan turn up with his various bags and boxes of equipment on shoots. It's not just knowing that he's got the right lights and grip to support a range of client requirements, it's all the extra little bags of clips and tape and odds and sods that demonstrate the kind of problem solving mentality that's needed on the kinds of shoots we do. He also turns up without the ego that afflicts a lot of our industry. It's a strong recommend from us. More...

I couldn't recommend Dan highly enough! He was extremely professional and super communicative throughout the entire process, which I really appreciated. He was flexible and willing to work with me to get the best possible outcome in the best time and within budget. The finished product came out better than I expected and I am very pleased with his work. I highly recommend him! Overall an incredibly pleasant person to do business with :) More...

We came across Dan Hunt's team by chance, but we are very happy that we did. We have hired a few film crews during the production of an advertising video for our company, but his team has been the one with the most complete and professional setup. He recorded a complex scene for our video using three independent cameras in a very professional management scheme, which ensured an easy post processing stage. Dan is the camera man and operator that you want to have by your side when hesitating about the effectiveness of a particular shot. His experience and professionalism were key to achieve top quality footage in our video. We definitely recommend his team. More...

Q&As

I love the variety, no two days are ever the same and I'm constantly on the move. Each job is a new challenge, a great way to meet new people and see new places I wouldn't otherwise get the chance to visit.

I've always liked being in control of my own destiny, and being self-employed means the sky is the limit!

I'm a creative and professional freelancer and have the flexibility to adapt to each clients needs. Although my skill set is the production aspect I have strong links with a network of freelancers so I can deliver full projects from concept through to post-production without the high overheads of a traditional production company.
