GUY MEACHIN
DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY

 
 
 

I began my TV career 20 years ago, working on high-end dramas and television commercials, where I gained extensive experience in both the lighting and camera departments. A decade ago, I moved into Factual television, with the skills and knowledge developed within scripted informing my approach as a Director of Photography within TV.

In 2023, I was Director of Photography on Our Falklands War: A Frontline Story, which received a BAFTA nomination for Best Single Documentary and won an RTS Award in the History category. The following year, I shot Miners' Strike: A Frontline Story, which was nominated for a Grierson Award.

Recent clients include major streaming platforms such as Netflix, Amazon Prime, BBC, and National Geographic.
