Summary
John Barker is a co-founder and experienced live-video professional based in Malmö with a decade of hands-on experience building video production tools, running live broadcasts, and creating educational content.

Comfortable as a one-person show or part of large tech teams, he combines expertise with vMix, ATEM, PTZs and DaVinci Resolve with frontend development (React) for production tooling and accessibility projects. He also brings practical studio operations experience from roles at Alfa Laval and Wallen Media, and a knack for turning production pain points into lightweight developer-driven solutions.
