David Montgomery — Co-Founder
Senior Broadcast Camera Operator | BBC, FIFA, UEFA, Sky, Prime Video Founder – Media Monty | Live Sport, Studio & Original Film Production I am a senior broadcast camera operator with over 10 years’ experience working on world-class live and studio productions across sport, culture and international events. I’ve operated cameras on World Cups, European Championships and the Winter Paralympic Games, as well as long-run studio shows and major international tournaments, delivering calm, precise performance within large OB teams and high-pressure environments. My broadcast work includes productions for BBC, FIFA, UEFA, Sky Sports, Prime Video, Olympic Broadcasting Services, and Sunset+Vine. I’m trusted on: • Live sport and studio camera operation • Long-run international events and tournaments • Remote and Hot Head crane operation • ENG, interviews and documentary shooting • Collaborative work within complex OB structures Alongside broadcast freelancing, I’m the founder of Media Monty, a production company specialising in original filmed content. Through Media Monty I direct, shoot and edit documentaries, interviews and branded films, delivering end-to-end projects from concept through to final delivery for international brands and organisations. Running Media Monty has strengthened my editorial judgment, storytelling instincts and leadership skills, all of which feed directly back into my broadcast work. Outside television, I also co-run Buddies Gin, where I lead content and brand strategy, further sharpening my creative and commercial perspective. I value precision, consistency, teamwork and trust, and I take pride in being someone productions can rely on quietly and repeatedly. 💬 Open to international broadcast, documentary and long-form factual projects.
