About me

If you're looking at this page I assume you are in need of a creative individual who can help bring your project to life. No matter how big or small I am that person. Please allow me a few minutes of your time to share my work ethos with you and communicate how I would approach your project.

WHAT CAN I DO?
I specialise in all aspects of post-production and music production. I have studied editing and colour grading from school through to University, graduating with a BA (Hons) in Filmmaking, and it is something I have never lost the passion for. I have experience working as part of a large crew, as well as working with Clients on a one-to-one basis. When not working in post, I am fanatical about music. I was about 12 yeas old when I found my first love - electronic music production! I am-self taught to a proficient level and naturally incorporating composition into a project is an added bonus. I am continually learning, in both post and music production. It comes as second nature to me to undertake hours of research to identify new methods or advancements in technology which can be applied to the project. At the end of the day, I take great pride in my work and want Clients to be more than satisfied with the finished production.

WHEN CAN I WORK?
Basically as and when the project requires. I will adopt a flexible approach and am not phased by tight deadlines and, as a former student, am quite accustomed to working throughout the night if the project demands!

WHO CAN I WORK FOR?
Absolutely anyone:
Film/Documentary makers
Production Companies
YouTubers
Local Businesses
Nationwide Businesses
International Businesses
Charities
Musicians
Influencers
Content Creators
Reviewers
Self-Employed Business Owners


I'm open to working with Students too and I will offer a discounted rate (proof of study required). I've been a Student before and I know times are hard and money is scarce!

Don't fit into any of these categories? Please enquire as I am open to all.

WHERE WILL I WORK?
Naturally, to ensure total client satisfaction and to enable me to continually improve, collaboration at every stage of the project is vital. I am based in my edit suite in Chesterfield, which is in the East Midlands area of the UK. Collaboration could be as simple as online communication or, if time is of the essence, via Wipster.io or frame.io. Both are efficient video review and collaboration tools allowing Clients full ownership of their production. I am also prepared to travel and hold a full, clean driving licence and own my own car. Whichever way is more convenient for the Client and the project. Or if you have any other special requirements, please let me know, all will be considered.
