Early in 1987 Ron decided to pursue his career as a freelance cameraman, producer and director and over the last 15 years has built and maintained a strong client base. His work has taken him to many parts of the world from the tropical jungles of Malaysia to the amazing beauty of the African interior.

Ron’s reputation and his ‘can do’ attitude has seen him involved in a number of long term and difficult projects. Ron has shot several documentaries in the jungles of Malaysia and Indonesia, these jobs have involved weeks of hardship for the crew who were living and working under extreme conditions in the tropical jungle.

In 1997 Ron was asked to shoot three documentaries on an expedition travelling the length of Africa. The expedition started out from Cape Town and drove to Cairo in 33 days. Again Ron was selected for his skill as a cameraman but more importantly for his ability to gel into the team environment.

In the year 2000 Ron was appointed senior cameraman for the Sydney 2000 Olympic Torch Relay and Paralympic Torch Relay, working for the accredited production company and SOCOG to supply all the news footage for the daily pool feed and the official Torch Relay Documentary.

Ron has director and producer credits along with extensive editing experience gained from editing many of his own project. Ron owns and operates the latest Panasonic DVC-PRO 50 digital camera equipment as well as Betacam SP cameras in both PAL and NTSC formats.
