Robert Gould

I’m a strategic filmmaker with a journalistic background and 15 years broadcast documentary experience from shooting, directing, and editing to leading creative teams in some of the world’s most interesting locations.

In my most recent role as senior producer/director at M&C Saatchi World Services, I’ve overseen the filmmaking process across multiple projects from initial client meetings and creative concepts to delivery.

My approach blends broadcast programme-making experience with strategic thinking. I use this combination to collaborate with clients and achieve their goals. Open communication gives clients a clear understanding of the creative route and the rationale driving it.

Experience across formats from animation to documentary enables me to drive the filmmaking process at every stage from ideation to final delivery. Using my expertise in production techniques and workflows to foster internal engagement, I lead creatives to achieve high quality results and great value for money for clients.

Working with government and multilaterals at M&C Saatchi, I have further developed my insight into how filmmaking techniques combine with clear strategy to change minds and shape opinions, particularly in geopolitical arenas.

I’ve worked in geographically complex locations and challenging circumstances. Sensitive projects include innovative messaging for government clients to reach tricky audiences.
