My name's Tony, but everyone calls me tk.
A highly experienced Creative Producer and Senior Editor with over 20 years in the television and media industry. With a combination of creative vision, technical knowledge, and production leadership I’ve worked across everything from VFX and editing to directing, brand strategy and campaign development.From launching channels and leading teams to directing and editing award-winning promos and international TVCs, I have a deep understanding of how to create content that resonates, whether it's a prime-timeTV audience or an online campaign. My background across broadcast and branded content ensures I’m just as comfortable crafting narratives as I am managing delivery pipelines, budgets and creative teams.
In my spare time I host and produce a soccer podcast and put on interactive Video DJ sets as Tony King’s Video Disco
