Department 43 is owned by DOP/Director Michael Sanders.

Michael has been freelance since 1997, working across a wide range of programs for both broadcast and corporate clients. You can view his reel here and see a list of credits on his own website mjsanders.co.uk

Our origin story.

On a regular basis over the years, many producers, directors and clients would sidle up to Michael and just pass a simple comment along the lines of: “Your crew are great, its such a great experience working with you and your team. You get the job done and are great fun to work with”

And thats the story of why Department 43 Media Ltd came about.

As a Director of Photography, Michaels extensive credits include everything from award wining documentaries such as “The Girl Who Forgave The Nazis” to factual/reality TV such as “Don’t Tell The Bride”. His corporate work includes very simple pieces to camera all the way up to narrative and commercial projects

He has now been providing crews and facilities to a wide range of shows for over 25 years.
