Barney Hartwill

I’m an attentive and creative person with a keen eye for detail. I work hard and have a passion for this industry. Having studied International Security and Terrorism at university with the hope of becoming the next James Bond, it was my love of film that led to a shift from espionage to the world behind the camera.

I’ve spent the last few years cutting my teeth as a runner, both in house and on set all over the UK, and have developed a strong understanding of what makes a shoot come together. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting some truly wonderful and talented people, and can’t wait to work with and learn from many more.

I’m now excited to take the next step up the production ladder, using skills developed on set and at the 2025 APA Masterclass to assist with call sheets, budgeting, movement orders and more as we tackle the many challenges that this amazing, crazy industry throws at us. If you’re looking for someone who can think on their feet and remain calm when the pressure’s on, give me a shout – I’d love to work with you!
