Elliot Wheatland-Clinch

Head of Production and Design London, UK

Elliot (He/Him) – As Head of Production and Design, I am a fan of all things to do with moving images – film, TV, animation, you name it. Simply put, I love making videos and telling stories, and when I’m not doing that, I’m probably reading them. Follow me on Twitter, LinkedIn and drop me some ideas/feedback on email.

Hi, I’m Elliot, the head of Production and Design.

I moved up north to study Film and TV Production at the University of York, before reluctantly returning southwards to pursue a creative career in London.

Like many in the creative industry I started out making tea and coffee, and whilst that is still a useful skill for any office environment, I am pleased to report I have progressed from the kettles to cameras.

When I’m not filming, editing, animating, or writing scripts, you can find me motivating the production desk at the office foosball table.

Thred Daily – How Accurate are ‘Best Before’ Dates?

Hands up if you’ve ever thrown away food because it had outlived it has ‘best before’ date? Don’t worry, us too. In an effort to reduce food waste, supermarkets are considering removing ‘best 'before’ labels from selected products, and encouraging customers to use their common sense when assessing freshness. Can customers be trusted not to eat an overly-squishy eggplant, or bite into a bruised-looking banana?
