Filmmaker

May 2018 - Feb 2022
I was titled Film maker, as my role was split between videographer, and editor. We produced a mostly corporate videos for industry leading brands, as well as promotional and documentary style films. Typically shooting several days a week, sometimes daily, nation wide and abroad. We shot on high end cameras, including our in house Black Magic Ursa’s, and I was the main camera operator out of our London hub My production duties (shooting aside) also included lighting the scene, mic-ing up subjects and monitoring sound. My editing role tasked me with building a strong edit to completion; from first assemblies, on to colour grading, subtitles, sound, client amends and finally quality checking alongside our Senior Editor. I also assisted with more complex After Effects projects using templates, or I created more basic animations. Show less

Oct 2017 - Apr 2018
My time there saw me produce videos varying from big budget client productions, to case study videos and promotion videos. This entailed assisting producers with crewing and casting, shooting on our in house Sony equipment or rented gear, and editing the final product alongside our creative director. I also aided in pitch work for new business: by putting ideas forward for briefs, and then creating mood films to show during pitches, using royalty free clips, or footage from our archive.
