Video Production

Everything from conception through to delivery of the final product. I can design, shoot, and edit all types of videos and films from short updates for YouTube to training videos, interviews, music videos, short films, promotional videos…or anything else you can imagine!

Editing

I work with Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Creative Cloud for post-production. I can take a brief, script, footage, or concept – and help make that a reality in the edit. Colour grading, sound design, and motion graphics included.

Motion Design

With After Effects and Cinema 4D the possibilities really are endless. I am quickly getting up to speed with the 3D side of things in Cinema 4D, as this is where real value can be added, and already have much experience with 2D and 2.5D inside After Effects.

Fidelity International

Studio Production Manager | Sep 2014 – May 2016 | London & Hong Kong

Initially hired as a Studio Editor, the role quickly developed into Production Manager with the primary responsibility for the day-to-day running of the studio including pre-production, scheduling, booking & managing freelancers, studio maintenance and future upgrades. Since joining Fidelity, I implemented new, logical production and post-production workflows, designed and managed new post-production SAN & backup system, designed technical specifications for a second studio in Hong Kong, which I went on secondment to run and get set up, and repurposed the existing studio kit for an on-site auditorium, whilst simultaneously upgrading the UK studio.

In January 2016 I went on a short-term secondment to get a brand new, class-leading studio in Hong Kong up and running – both in terms of the technical setup of the studio & control room, and also the programming & processes for the studio. Hiring an additional post-production headcount and sourcing production agencies for overflow workload were also key, and successfully met, objectives.

C3 has a reputation for delivering world-class conferences within Cambridge, all of which incorporate the use of bespoke high-end video, audio, theatre lighting and 21st-century web technologies. The role had a large emphasis on digital video production/editing from pre- to post-production and required extensive experience using Final Cut Studio, video cameras & studio lighting. The role also encompassed operating as the lead engineer within a team of 20 volunteers, covering audio, lighting, camera and AV disciplines. This developed my technical and creative abilities and also my project and people management skills along with internally focused “customer” relation management when delivering projects for various departments.
