My name is Theo Hessing, I'm a British videographer based in Medellín, Colombia. Since 2015 I've worked as a freelance cameraman, multimedia journalist and field producer producing documentaries and video content around Latin America for online news media, television and NGOs, focusing on human rights/women's/lgbt+ rights, human trafficking and climate change. I have covered a variety of subjects including the Venezuelan migration crisis, the Colombian peace process, the massacre of environmental activists in Honduras, sex trafficking in Mexico and the 'double jeopardy' of forcible displacement by conflict and climate change. I'm a cameraman stringer with the Thomson Reuters Foundation (http://news.trust.org/) and I have worked with them across Latin America, my work with them has been nominated for several awards. My work has also been featured by the BBC, PBS, Time Magazine, Discovery, and NGOs such as Fairtrade, Cool Earth and the ODI among others. I hold an MA in Conflict, Security and Development from the department of War Studies at King's College London.
