My first position with Comtec was working at the Comtec studio where I interviewed the new coming players, after working with them on a couple of occasions, they began to acknowledged my passion for being part of their team. They offered me an opportunity to join them as part of the camera crew for the match nights, giving me my main first paid work placement in my chosen field.
I could see at the time that due to studying the different camera operating skills at college and university, it has helped me work productively and efficiently in this industry. It has also given me the belief that by using the skills that I have learnt theoretically as well as practically I am able to excel in this industry. Manchester Phoenix eventually ended up winning the English Ice Hockey premier league of 2013/2014. Filming the entire home games in the season, the interviews and when Manchester won their final game was exhilarating, especially when we had to go on to the ice-rink to get close up shots of the players celebrating and when they lifted the trophy.
An award ceremony was held in Manchester where the players, team sponsors and all other staff members that have taken part in helping Manchester phoenix on match nights attended. I was part of the 2014 award ceremony for Phoenix TV where players and film crew, including me, received awards. The award was given to me for being a reliable cameraman and also as recognition from Head of Comtec themselves.
