John McNally Data Manager

John transitioned into the world of film and television later in his career, bringing with him a diverse background in PR, museums, academia, and even maritime work. This eclectic mix of experiences has endowed him with a unique perspective and adaptability that he applies to every project he undertakes.

With a solid foundation in lab work, John excels at anticipating the needs of post-production, ensuring seamless operations on set. His experience as the Dailies Lab Technician for projects such as My Lady Jane, The Swimmers, and Anansi Boys has equipped him with expertise in dailies processes, including data management, transcoding, and applying LUTs. This hands-on experience has deepened his understanding of complex data workflows in a controlled environment.

Looking ahead, John is eager to collaborate with Digital Orchard as a Data Manager on HETV and feature films, or as a Near-set DIT. A passionate traveler, he is available for productions nationwide and internationally.
