David Hooper
A Bsc Communications graduate, David has been an Editor, Director and Producer before founding a production/post production facility house in 1987. He formed Espresso TV in 1992, with a pilot project entitled Espresso for the BBC. A few years later David was approached to instigate a daily multi-language sports programming/distribution service to Latin & Hispanic North America. Since 1999 David returned to Espresso TV to specialise in international co-production and documentary distribution. He has appeared on a number of international distribution panels and is a visiting lecturer at Brighton University.

Away from the bustling office, markets and festivals, David enjoys cricket, tennis, music and the glorious Sussex countryside. He is also a fan of Watford FC.

Gary Mitchell Distribution Executive Tel: +44 (0)1273 730929 Email: gary@espressotv.co.uk


Gary has over 25 years experience in the international distribution and production business. Initially starting in sales at Global Television Services he remained with them through its transformation into Portman Entertainment before moving with the catalogue to Primetime (formely RPTA).

Gary escaped London for the more tranquil joys of Oxfordshire - often seen in the early hours speeding round the countryside on his beloved bike.
