In my own words

Matt

I’m Matt Drummond and I’m a producer up for any challenge.

I've had my hand in just about every style of show and live sport imaginable and I’m showing no signs of slowing down.

Hello, glad you could stop by. I've been writing and producing television for the past eight years in Australia. I've spent most of my time at two of the biggest networks, Channel Nine and Fox Sports.

Produced live sports including; Soccer, Rugby League, Golf, Cricket, Basketball and shows around a whole host more.

Spent years in the newsroom and current affairs programs, so I've got the journalism side of things covered.

Along the way I've traveled around the country and overseas in charge of large broadcasts and small shoots working with some amazing people, which you will probably spot on my connections list.
