About me
Hello, my name is Liam Izzard and I am a Video Editor/Screenwriter from Ireland. I graduated from the National Film and Television School of Ireland in 2016 and from there went into TV editing for 2 years, working on Virgin Media News, Xpose, and various daytime programmes such as Ireland AM, The Elaine Show and the 6 O' Clock Show. In the hopes of expanding my network and seeking creative clients I started work with Maximum Media in this time, making videos for Joe.ie, Her and SportsJoe.For 6 months I travelled through SE Asia on my own and during this time I completed the Langtang Valley and Annapurna Base Camp climbs. From Nepal I went to Cambodia, Laos and finally Vietnam where I drove the Ha Giang Loop on motorcycle and subsequently travelled south to finish my trip. I have now moved to London in the hopes of finding creatively fulfilling work that I can really throw myself into.
I am particularly interested in film and music. In my spare time I write screenplays, collect vinyl records and read. I play the guitar, piano, violin and I am currently learning to record my own music within my studio set up that I have built at home.

Additional information:
Whilst my experience in the industry is primarily in Video Editing I am also interested in screenwriting professionally. I write for directors occasionally and received a First Class Honours Degree for my feature script during my time at the NFTS in Ireland.
Since arriving in London I have worked primarily with RD Content as a Video Editor, creating edits for clients such as Barbour, Williams F1, EY Global and The Fratellis. I am fully geared up to work from my studio set up at home and am proficient with Adobe Premiere, After Effects and Photoshop as well as Avid. I can also Color Grade in Premiere or DaVinci Resolve. The computer I use is one I custom built from scratch that I have specifically tailored to handle high workloads.
