Clive North




Aerial Cameraman, Camera Operator, Crane Operator, Lighting Camera
About:
I'm an Hd Cam and DigiBeta owner-operator, based in the UK shooting predominately science and history-based subjects for BBC and Channel 4 in the UK plus National Geographic, Nova and Discovery in the US.
I'm experienced in drama-documentary shooting in all sorts of uncomfortable places such as down caves and mines (a bit of a speciality), in the air and at sea.
Helicopter work has included using Tyler mounts in the past, but nowadays handheld with a Canon stabiliser lens has been the favourite over locations such as the active volcano vents of Hawaii and the heights of the Swiss Alps. Closer to home Channel 4’s archaeological series ‘Time Team’ has regularly involved more helicopter work. In years gone by I became known as 'the famous Clive' in Keith Floyd's roving cookery programmes!
