Meet the Team

Meet the motley crew of staff that work at Classlane Media!

Dave Beasley - Producer/Camera

Dave Beasley

Experienced broadcast producer who has worked for Sky, Channel 4 and the BBC. Still keeps hands dirty as Classlane’s most experienced cameraman. Actually, the truth is he won’t let anyone else touch the camera, he says we’ll break it.

Dave Lee - Director/Writer

Dave Lee

Experienced broadcast director who has worked for Sky and Channel 4. Keen swearer.

Rich Manville - Head of Multimedia

Rich Manville

Hugely inventive and experienced programmer, fluent in Director, Flash, Photoshop, Dreamweaver and so on. Cries if you tickle him.

Andi Olssen - Head of Post Production

Andi Olssen

Edited programmes for Sky and Channel 4. Classlane’s senior editor. Has more degrees and qualifications than the rest of the team put together but still can’t make a decent cup of tea.

David Stubbins - Camera/Editor

David Stubbins

Bit of an all-rounder is Stubbo. Cameraman, editor, footballer, bachelor boy, bon-viveur, hunchback, terrorist, steeplejack or desperado. Who can tell? Who cares?

Kelly Greaves - Editor

Kelly Greaves

Effective, artistic and efficient is our Kelly; which is surprising as she exists solely on a diet of crisps and signs her name with an X.

Simon Baxter - Cameraman

Simon Baxter

Simon has over 15 years experience behind the camera. Next week we’re going to show him how to take the lens cap off.

Adrian Medforth - Cameraman

Adrian Medforth

“Is that framing alright, Dave?” “Shall I start rolling?”, “Why is the sky blue?”, “What’s the difference between a man and a woman?”. Just some of the questions the ever enquiring brain of Ade might throw out at any time. The body of a man, the mind of a child and the haircut of an 80’s mobile disco DJ.

John Rowley - Sound

John Rowley

30 years experience in location and studio recording. Gold album awarded producer for “The Beautiful South”. Born in the late 1840’s.

Simon Wilkinson - Graphics

Simon Wilkinson

Has produced graphics for all the major broadcasters, whether they asked for them or not.

Mike Woodford - Business Development

Mike Woodford

Call him what you like – Mike, Mikey, Mika, Mick, Woody, Woodo, the Woodster, Widi-Fidi – he’s technically brain dead so he won’t answer anyway!

Patty Reynolds - Secretary

Patty Reynolds

Least said, soonest mended.
