Script Supervisor
Grounded in years of floor experience on flagship studio productions like Mary & George, A Thousand Blows, and Bad Sisters, Ash brings exceptional technical precision and narrative continuity to the script department. Having transitioned seamlessly from camera and production into script supervising, his credits now span independent shorts, feature films, and HETV.
Ash’s deep understanding of set mechanics makes him a trusted, sharp eye for producers, directors and editors.

The Split Up
Script Supervisor
I worked with Ash Newman on THE SPLIT UP (BBC One) and can unequivocally vouch for his talent, consistency, and fastidious eye for detail. He would regularly bring creative problem-solving to the table whilst navigating numerous time pressures and demands. He instantly became a highly valued, trusted member of the crew, and was able to work with multiple departments skilfully. I would wholeheartedly recommend Ash for any production, and very much hope to work with him again.
