Contact me at: Hello@damienhyde.com

A lifelong cinephile, I was born and raised in the Black Country town of Tipton.
I studied Film theory at Wolverhampton University before moving into my first career teaching Film and Media at The RSA Academy.  
Whilst always making short films, sketches and music videos, At 30 I pivoted and began a career in TV/Film. Starting out as a Camera Trainee, I eventually moved along in the Cam Team to where I am now as a freelance 1st AC/Drama Camera Operator currently working with BBC Studios.
In the last 3 years I have directed and shot music videos for Scott Matthews, The Pains of Being Pure at Heart, The Nature Centre and The Natvral as well as photographing Album Artwork for Katherine Priddy’s The Pendulum Swing. 
I live in Moseley with my wonderful partner and three rambunctious cats.
