“Having worked with lots of Directors I was in the very capable hands of Del when he directed my interview with David Hasselhoff. For me to look/feel my best it was important to feel in control and relaxed and Del certainly made me feel that with his calm shot calling and direction. I would love to work with him again.”

Keri Smith
Producer
“I worked with Del for several years and found him to be one of the best live TV directors around. From a presenters perspective its important that a director listens to what I’m saying and does’t just direct / mix by numbers. Del is very good at this and will adapt to any situation. He’s also great on talkback and makes doing shows incredibly enjoyable. I would’t hesitate to recommend Del for any live directing / vision mixing jobs. I hope to work with him again one day.”

I would not hesitate to recommend Del, and any studio would be lucky to secure his services.”

He has a superb ability to navigate through any challenging situations with expertise and calm, whilst bringing a fantastically good humoured and up beat approach to all he does.

Sara Griffiths
TV Presenter
“Having worked with Del on a number of Direct Response Channels when we needed a director who understood what was needed and gave valuable input into the on screen look and production. A director that can be client facing and represents your company, somebody who motivates your crew to get the work done then Del is your man. I highly recommend Del and enjoy working with him both as an exec producer and on the floor as a presenter. Excellent!”
Steve Hyland
Co-owner Retail Therapy Television
“It’s not often that I admit someone I work with ‘ticks all the boxes’. But Del does just that. Given, he is professional, organised, focused and proactive. But he is also tremendously good humoured and very cool under pressure, which means he commands the respect, calmness and attention of his troops and clients alike. In fact, it’s a shame Del Browns don’t grow on trees. I always look forward to working with him.”

Yvonne Ackrill
Freelance Director/Vision Mixer
“I have worked with Del on many live and pre recorded shows and his ability to make a very stressful and demanding job look easy and more importantly FUN is why I enjoyed working with Del as much as I did. His expertise and flare, especially in the live ‘Selly Telly’ arena is second to none.”
