Hello,
a bit about me:
​
Meg Fozzard is a South London based disabled freelance producer and journalist. Her career as a producer began back in 2018 when she studied Creative Producing for Digital Platforms at the National Film and Television School. There, she learnt how to produce for AR, VR, podcasts, smart home devices and social media.
She graduated in February 2019 and became disabled in April 2019, drastically altering her career.
Her career highlights include working as a Producer on the Museum of Austerity XR experience with director Sacha Wares, the National Theatre and the English Touring Theatre, working as the Project Coordinator on the podcast Equal Too: Achieving Disability Equality with HARDER THAN YOU THINK ahead of the Paralympic Games in Tokyo and being part of the team at BBC Voice and AI that created Beat the Bot, an AI voice controlled quiz.
​
Outside of work she is dedicated to learning more about accessibility in the arts and media sectors. In 2022 she completed the Introduction to Producing Course with Ramps on the Moon, Leeds Playhouse and Sheffield. In 2021 she completed the Accessing New Technologies course with the Young Vic, which combined theatre with VR and accessibility.
She tries to work within the theme of disability across sectors. Her writing on disability rights issues and culture have been featured in Vice, BBC Ouch, Stylist, Refinery 29 and Wellcome Stories. You can see examples of her previous work and get in touch with her at her website.
​
'Meg has a range of skills and knowledge about XR producing that are going to be increasingly valuable to the industry over the coming years. She's an original, adventurous thinker and I am looking forward a great deal to working with her again and deepening our collaboration.'

't was such a pleasure working with Meg on the ExR Exhibition at Open City Documentary Festival. She fit into the team effortlessly and approached the role with positivity even when things were challenging. Her communication skills were excellent and she made sure to give frequent updates throughout the process, which was really appreciated in the busy lead-up to the festival.'

'It was an absolute pleasure working with Meg. We had a fun but it was a complex beast of a podcast and Meg was able to wrangle all of the different parties and ensure that we were able to stick to time and to task. I'm not sure if that side of things was in her skillset beforehand but she certainly took to it like a duck to water. I'd be honoured to work with Meg again and would consider her for any number of roles on a project!'
