Ep 29: Adam Downey - Director of Post Production at Sky
Post-production is an ecosystem of constant decisions for an ever-changing goalpost… so what does it take to run post at a major broadcaster like Sky?
This week on TV Makers, I sit down with Adam Downey, Director of Post Production at Sky, to find out how he keeps one of the UK’s biggest post departments running—smoothly, sustainably, and at serious scale.
We talk tight schedules, futureproofing systems, the human side of leadership, and why understanding post earlier in the process can save everyone time, money, and a whole lot of stress. Adam’s mission? To demystify post and help all of us—across production and editorial—work smarter, not harder.
If you’ve ever handed over to post and crossed your fingers… this one’s for you.
🎧 Hit play, and let’s go.
