James McFarlane - Head of IT

James McFarlane is responsible for keeping everyone in the company connected and working effectively whether at their at their desks in London, Glasgow, New York or filming in the remotest regions on earth.

In practical terms it’s thanks to James that the computers here don’t crash half way through writing a script, that information, images and footage can be shared over a wide variety of technological platforms, that we can connect with the outside world, print glossy treatments, and drop an email to a production manager from the rim of a volcano 3,000 miles away knowing with absolute certainty it’ll get there.

A former Lion Lawn Bowls champion James is a keen tennis player and is often seen heading happily out to the Ravenscourt Park courts swinging a racket at lunchtime.
