About

I am an Audio Visual Professional, with a lot of hands-on experience in post-production on commercials, music videos and documentary. Beginning as a commercials editor, some of my clients I have maintained relationships for over a decade. I have worked on many food and chocolate commercials involving special effects including Snickers and M&Ms which were broadcast during the Super Bowl half time break. One of the highlights of my career was directing a film for Rockstar Games for the launch of Red Dead Redemption 2 which included organising a drone shoot in the middle of Piccadilly Circus. A 30 minute documentary I directed and produced was funded by Film London and played at international documentary festivals including IDFA 2013. I have recently begun editing video podcast which uses all my technical skills as well as my love of comedy and spoken word.
