Natalie Arnett, Executive Producer, natalie@riffrafffilms.tv

Natalie joined Riff Raff as Head of Music Video (and Creative Development) in 2015 previously working as a producer, commissioner and creative director.

Flash forward and Natalie now works as an EP on commercials while still keeping an overseeing eye on the music video division – as well as making sure the office is 40% humans / 60% plants at all times. Fair to say she’s not often bored. She lives in the 1950’s but we can talk to her as we have her 4-digit London phone number.

Tracey Cooper, Executive Producer, tracey@riffrafffilms.tv

Tracey Cooper is the Executive Producer behind some of the industries most celebrated work, spanning commercials, short films and interactive. 

First studying Film Theory at Kent University then gaining a Masters in Film Production at Christchurch, she began her career at the multi-award winning Blink. There she rose from Chief Tea-Maker to Head of Production where she specialised in live action and VFX, working with Directors including Dougal Wilson and Doug Foster. From Blink she moved to Stink, where she partnered with Bafta winning director Gaelle Denis on high profile work for Nike, Du Pont, and Coke. 

Breaking the established format of working for companies that rhyme with wink, she joined Nexus in 2010 with the opportunity to work with Bafta & Cannes Grand Prix winning and Oscar Nominated directing duo, Smith and Foulkes. The three of them soon forged a strong alliance and have been responsible for some of the most talked about commercials over the years since. Their award stash includes every piece of silverware going from British Arrows' Gold, Webbys, Clios, Sharks to Cannes Lions and everything in between. Notable work includes Honda 'Hands' for W&K, Channel 4's 'Stand Up To Cancer', Adam&Eve's ‘Temptations', BBC's 'Sprout Boy' Christmas campaign, Wimbledon and the interactive storybook app 'Radio Jones'. 

Most recently her work on BBC Winter Olympics picked up a Bafta, and the beautifully crafted film for Fender and Jimmy Page won a prestigious Annie award.

And because she is a wonderful human, Tracey also volunteers for Speakers for Schools; a charity which encourages people who have made a name for themselves doing rad stuff to visit schools in areas with little access to such insider insight. We’re delighted to have her and her insight as part of the Riff Raff family.

Kate Brady, Producer, kate@riffrafffilms.tv

Kate is from Wales but has a Yorkshire accent; she says it’s because she visited Manchester. I mean…. So we are all going to Manchester next week. 

In other times here in London, Kate is responsible for (and rather adept at) herding cats (otherwise known as pulling together productions) for music videos and now commercials too. Some may say she’s a Producer. Or PRADUSER as they say in Wales / Manchester.

Maddy Smith, Production Assistant, maddy@riffrafffilms.tv

Maddy is our organiser of all things riff raff! She is responsible for managing production requests, press, awards, and social events. She spends her time collecting colourful books and thinking about her dreams from the night before. Give her a ring if you’re ever in a jam …. or just fancy a chat.
