About KMG

With a degree in Wildlife Conservation and background working in specialist kit hire, KMG Management was established by Katie-Marie Goodwright in 2018 to assist production with finding the best specialist crew around the world. With the success of KMG Global Crew, KMG has gone on to launch KMG Editorial Talent and KMG's Industry support, to help better connect and support our industry. For production, KMG specialises in recommending crew and editorial talent, matching their skills and experience with production requirements. KMG's understanding of various specialisms and the additional considerations required, is hugely beneficial to productions when using KMG's services. Being well networked within the industry and understanding the importance of a team crew are fundamental to KMG.  For crew and editorial talent, KMG's global directories help to connect them with production companies on the look out for crew / talent. KMG Core Crew is an additional management service for a select number of camera crew, working closely with them to provide support which enables them to focus more on the job they love and less on the admin that comes with it! KMG provides industry to support everyone working within natural history filmmaking, to help our industry work better together. In addition, KMG can also provides production underwater support to help bring a shoot together for productions who have little / no experience of working underwater, or are under tight time constraints. From budgeting to logistics, kit, safety and support, KMG can work with production to assist with planning an underwater shoot.
