About me
Passionate, dedicated and creative senior editor and motion graphic designer. Hard working and a perfectionist at heart with over 10 years experience in the television industry ranging from BBC broadcast documentaries, corporate videos and live events to music videos and comedy shorts.Most recently I've been in the broadcast charity sector as a senior editor for Comic Relief and the BBC, making films for Red Nose Day and Sport Relief and also Red Nose Day USA for NBC. It is crucial that these films strike up an instant emotional response with their audiences and they have helped to raise funds such as over £76million this year alone.
I'm always on the lookout to create high quality stories for exciting and interesting collaborators. I'm a very passionate person whether it's in my work or my slightly insane obsession with sport. I'm currently based in London but keen to travel. If you would like to know more my website is: alexleonard.co.uk and on there you can find my showreel.

Additional information:
Excellent technical knowledge of Adobe Premiere and FCP 7 having off-lined and on-lined with them for over 10 years. I also have a good knowledge of other Adobe Creative Suite programmes such as Photoshop, Illustrator and After Effects having used these for many years creating broadcast quality motion graphics.
I have a good grasp of Da Vinci Resolve and am in the process of learning Cinema 4D.
My knowledge of post production decks is varied ranging from standard DV Decks to more complicated HD-CAM SR decks such as the Sony SRW-5800. I have overseen the installation of several large META-SAN drives in conjunction with external support companies and have been in charge of overseeing edit suites from a technical standpoint in many of my previous jobs.
I can use a wide range of production equipment including Sony EX-1, EX-3, Canon XF305 and the Canon C300. I also own and use a Canon 550 DSLR and am fully competent with other Canon DSLR models such as the 5D. I have my own Mac Book Pro with all Adobe Apps and FCP 7.
