About me
I am an enthusiastic and diligent new addition to the world of post-production. Carrying experience from physical production and my first few small-scale commissions, my budding craft in editing is a mix of self-taught skills and mentorship from senior Industry professionals. I recently become a mentee on the Talking Point Film and Television Network, which has allowed my passion to flourish into a career.With a degree in English Literature and American Studies, my interest in editing stems from a passion for storytelling; specifically in the process of capturing and assembling narratives. Even by the most seemingly monotonous tasks before the edit even begins such as logging the rushes, I feel fuelled by the process, knowing it will eventually become one sequence, and then finally one completed project.
My skill as a warm and clear communicator is what I believe makes me an ideal post-production runner. My ability to relay information in this manner is born out of five years of experience in customer service roles. For example, I have learned what needs be condensed into one sentence, and what needs to expanded on for clarification. This distinction may seem obvious, but in stressful environments and situations, it is a life line to overcoming any obstacle. Above all however, it is not just what I have learned but what I instinctively am; an incredibly friendly and personable character.
Skilled in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects. Expanding familiarity with Adobe Indesign, Audition and Final Cut Pro.
