John Bardsley began his career as a Media Technician at Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government where he was the technical director at The Arco Forum. The 350-seat facility was used for televised speeches and panels that were covered on C-Span as well as for national and international broadcasts.

His experiences at The Arco Forum lead to various production opportunities with live sports broadcasts for Massachusetts based franchises. (Red Sox, Bruins, Celtics, & Patriots)

In 1995, Bardsley made the move to New York City at the behest of a writer/producer friend.  After a stint as a film and video production assistant with several network and film clients, John signed on as a Post Production Supervisor with Showtime’s Creative Services department.  Here he learned nonlinear editing and eventually graduated to producing the on air promotions for Showtime. As a primary producer for Showtime, The Movie Channel, Flix, and Sundance, he soon amassed a significant body of work. It was at this time John decided to test the waters as a freelance producer.

Purchasing a nonlinear editing system of his own, JB set up his own shop and began to welcome a host of new clients: Showtime, ESPN, A&E, Sci-Fi Channel, History Channel, NY 1, USA Network…to name a few.

John Bardsley Productions has continued onward building on a solid core of network and corporate clients.  In 2007, a successful campaign for Showtime’s Digital Media Group landed a Promax Silver Award.  These days, John’s work horizons are constantly expanding.  With state of the art equipment, years of experience and a tailored approach, John has continued to fulfill all of his clients needs with style and grace.
