David Smith

David Smith is a UK-based television director specialising in multi-camera studio and outside broadcasts. He began directing live TV in the late 90’s and since then has garnered a wealth of experience in multiple genres including magazine shows, news, current affairs, live events, music, cooking, chat shows, sport and live debate. As well as leading larger productions David has proved to be extremely capable at creating high quality broadcasts for shows with very little budget. He regularly vision mixes programmes that he directs and is well-versed in the use of leading Automated Production Control software. In addition to directing, David also teaches multi-camera studio production to university students in Edinburgh each year. This enables him to display the same patient, confident and encouraging approach with his students as he does with a TV crew.
