About Clapperboard Communications

Katie Colledge, Founder of Clapperboard Communications

Clapperboard Communications was founded by Katie Colledge, a PR and content specialist with more than 20 years’ experience.

Having worked in senior in-house marketing and comms positions at leading film and broadcast technology manufacturers, Katie has extensive experience of finding authentic and compelling stories within a customer community.

Most recently, she led global marketing for ARRI Solutions, developing strategic marketing and communication plans to promote high-quality virtual production workflows and facilities across the globe. Fluent in French and German, Katie effectively manages European and international campaigns, working with senior stakeholders and multiple project partners.

Her passion for promoting diversity and inclusion in the industry is reflected in her role on the advisory board for Rise - Women in Broadcast, where she focuses on advancing regional initiatives that support women in the sector.

A proud Yorkshire woman living on the other side of the Pennines, you will find Katie watching European cinema or the latest hit streaming drama (often with her latest project on the knitting needles), at a 90s indie band reunion gig, or attempting to improve her parkrun PB.
