About Peter Price:
TV Director, Radio Producer, Video Editor and Founder of PPM
Live broadcasting is in my veins and I've been doing it for nearly 20 years. I direct and produce TV shows, live events, podcasts and radio programmes that reach millions of people around the world.
I'm known for being calm under pressure. I adore working in studios with multiple cameras and large crews but you'll also find me travelling the world directing single-camera documentaries on location.

I direct and produce BBC Click Live - the interactive, stage-show version of the BBC's global technology TV show. Working closely with the Click team, I have had the pleasure of brining live technology demonstrations to audiences in London, Glasgow, Cambridge, Dundee, Dublin and India.

Experienced Director and Producer
After being bitten by the broadcasting bug at student radio in Lancaster, I joined the BBC World Service as a trainee in 2004. I worked at Bush House in London and on location in Africa and the Middle East.
My interest in technology led me to produce Digital Planet for World Service radio and then to produce, report and direct Click - the BBC's flagship technology TV show on BBC World News.
Through PPM, my independent production company, I have continued my long association with the BBC - producing radio documentaries for BBC Radio 4, TV documentaries for BBC World News, BBC Culture, BBC Future and BBC Travel, and directing many series of educational videos for BBC Learning English.

How It Started
My love of live shows started at the age of 11 when I joined the crew of my school play. Over the next ten years I developed my passion for lighting - including lighting two award-winning musicals at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Today I focus on producing factual content with a focus on science, technology and engineering.
Live Events
I direct and produce BBC Click Live - the interactive, stage-show version of the BBC's global technology TV show. Working closely with the Click team, I have had the pleasure of brining live technology demonstrations to audiences in London, Cambridge, Dublin and India.
