Matt Baker
Matt Baker, a hugely experienced and respected 2nd Assistant Director sadly passed away at the beginning of March 2013.
His career started in the mid-nineties and he progressed to become one of the most sought after ADs in the UK. Trusted and treasured by both cast and crew, his credits included Sherlock Holmes, Prometheus, World War Z and most recently he worked on The Muppets.
Nicknamed 'Bagel' on account of his surname and Jewish heritage, Matt Baker was widely regarded as among the best in his field.
We understand that Matt had been awaiting a kidney transplant that did not materialise.
He was a much loved and admired individual, and he will be sadly missed by his friends and colleagues alike.
