Martin Kempton
About:  I was a BBC lighting director for about ten years and have been freelance since 2002. I have worked in all the major London studios and for many independent production companies as well as the BBC and ITV. In addition to studio work I have in the past spent many months on location working on dramas and inserts for sitcoms. I particulary enjoy comedy and have lit more than twenty-five sitcoms and sketch shows. As a contrast, I often work on music shows, gameshows and general entertainment programmes.
