About
Louis Holder (BFIFA, BIFA) is an RTS-Award Winning Filmmaker, whose work has featured at numerous national and international film festivals including the BFI Future Film Festival, London Short Film Festival (LSFF), Raindance Film Festival, Manchester International Film Festival, Sundance-Qualifying Scout Film Festival (Vermont, U.S) and UCL Festival of the Moving Image (FoMI).
Graduating from the world-renowned Film (BA) course at Westminster Film School, where he specialised in Producing and Post & Production Sound, he took his same passion for teamwork, storytelling, organisation and cross-departmental experience into offline editing and colour. He has since been building up credits both as a freelance offline editor and as an assistant and supervising editor on larger productions and in complex post-production teams. Additionally, he has recently started accumulating credentials in sound design, colour grading and post-production supervision on independent short films, documentaries and artists’ moving image practice.
His work has screened at cinemas (such as BFI Southbank, BAFTA London, Curzon Bloomsbury and The Prince Charles Cinema), broadcast TV (such as Channel 4, London Live and ArtStreaming TV) and digital platforms (such as NOWNESS, Vimeo Staff Picks, BFI Film Academy, Nipple Hairs Zine). Louis is also the Creative Director of Studio Holder, an independent film company integrating production, post-production, independent film distribution and contemporary & emergent media education. He is now studying on the Masters Course (MA) in Editing & Post-Production at London South Bank University, upon which he has recently become a DaVinci Resolve 17 Certified User and is currently working towards the Avid Media Composer Certified User (101 & 110) qualifications.
