We distribute programmes for some of the world's leading broadcasters and independent producers in current affairs programming. We provide in-depth reports on topical issues and often provide an insight into lesser-known subjects. SWPictures is based at a large facilities house in west London which produces programmes for broadcasters all over the world. We have the in-house expertise that enables us to assist and produce programming for broadcasters. The company's founder and director, Scott White, is a journalist by profession. Until a few years ago, as an independent producer, he travelled to the 'hotspots' of the world filming, originally on Hi-8, some of the world's worst conflicts and revealing, through clandestine filming, the grubby activities of rogue regimes and companies. These films were sold to many broadcasters and used on their weekly or nightly magazine programmes. But in 1994 this time as a travelling journalist ended abruptly when Scott was shot, and his cameraman killed, while filming a documentary in Algeria. Realising that his days of filming in war zones were at an end, he turned his skills to distributing other people's reports to the vast network of broadcasters, which he had supplied as an independent producer. The direct lines of communication which he built up with programme editors and the experience he gained as an independent producer, have proved invaluable to the distribution business, both in raising commissions and selling off-the-shelf reports. SWPictures is now one of the premier international distributors of current affairs programming, with new reports available weekly and an extensive library on our website.
