Tom Woods | About Me

A bit more about me...

For 8 years I was a Creative Producer at the London-based agency Bruce Dunlop & Associates, writing and producing work in every category of video communications.

As lead creative, I worked closely with a wide range of businesses to write and produce both short and long form content, refine briefs, and ensure that all work was strategically targeted to have maximum impact on its audience.

Since leaving BDA in 2013, I’ve been able to concentrate solely on writing.

I love what I do, and I take a lot of pride in being able to write for any audience. I can craft unique, creative and compelling responses to project briefs, ensuring that the key messages are powerfully delivered within an original framework. I particularly enjoy turning complex content into clear, accessible and memorable communications.

Away from work, I'm film obsessed, buy too many books, and while I've only ever written one song, David Hasselhoff sang it.

True story.*

Oh, and I also write children's books. For this, I'm represented by Rachel Petty at The Blair Partnership.

*Update: this is no longer true. I've written a song about how Die Hard is a Christmas movie now too.

Testimonials

"Tom is the Shakespeare of corporate film!"

Sara Cooper, Creative Co-Founder, Plastic Pictures.

"Tom turns ugly, complex content into beautiful, compelling verse. His sensitivity and his attention to detail shine through all he produces. Tom on tap would be a wonderful thing."
Hannah Mably, Executive Producer, Brunswick.

"Tom is one of the finest writers I've ever had the pleasure of working with. He can turn his hand, or pen, to anything: TVCs, radio commercials, short films, web series, gag writing for Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. You can spot the hallmarks of Tom's work a mile off: a creatively robust idea based on a wonderful, original insight, or very funny observation, great characterisation and sparkling dialogue. That said, he's not bloody perfect. I have MAJOR issues with the fact that his choice of font is Calibri at 11 pt, and despite my protestations, he continues to deliver his work as such. Titting annoying. "

James Rawlings, Creative Director, Gaggle Productions.

"From developing concepts to crafting scripts, Tom is creative, considered and adds value at all stages. His writing style is adaptable to suit the client and project - and as an added bonus he’s a really nice guy to work with."
