About Steve Dixon
My Vision
To share my knowledge and experiences to film and TV productions when filming complex location shoots.
MY BACKGROUND
I am a retired Met Police Officer of 22+ years service, the last 9.5 of those running the Met Police Film Unit, the only Police Film Unit in the UK. I have extensive knowledge and experience in working with film and TV productions wishing to film complex and challenging shoots on location.
In 2014 i joined the MPS Film Unit and was project manager for the Avengers Age Of Ultron movie which was filming for over 4 months at the Met Police Hendon training site. From there I have worked with 100s of productions filming in London, Bond, Mission Impossible, Fast and Furious, Top Gear, Lost In London, the only live stream movie to be filmed in London, Bodyguard, Trigger Points, Luther to name just a few. Please click on my IMDB link
Working with Film London, TFL, 33 London borough Film Offices which includes the City Of London, Port Of London Authority , the Security Services and film and TV armourers. I have also been guest speaker to film and TV colleges and universities across London and the Home Counties, presenting on the do's and don'ts of location filming. I am hugely passionate in what I do, hard working enabler with a can-do attitude.
HOW CAN I HELP
Film and TV is all about being creative and pushing the boundaries. Working inside a closed set studio with scenes that could be potentially alarming or dangerous to the public is fine, now bring those scenes onto a public street or road and the whole dynamics of the shoot change. Filming with firearms, weapons and replica Police uniforms, replica Police and emergency action vehicles, crime scenes, violence, nudity, SFX, drones, helicopters and when filming on the move with complex tracking vehicles are all examples of where if not planned right and in good time can lead to problems and in some cases, a Police matter. I can help productions wishing to film scenes of this nature, safely and lawfully.
