In my current role, I film and edit a variety of news, current affairs and historical/educational styles of television programming under a tight turnaround. This content is made available on platforms such as Oireachtas TV. My main responsibilities include importing footage, creating timelines and sequences, sourcing and adding cutaways, adding subtitles, music and sound FX, exporting and rendering the final edit so it is ready to be broadcast on television. I am extremely proficient with the entire Adobe Creative Suite as well as Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve and Avid Media Composer.

Film Teacher

Jan 2019 - Present
Since early 2019, I have been the Film teacher at the Betty Ann Norton Theatre School in Rathmines. In this role, I teach all aspects of film to students aged 10 to 18. I develop semester outlines and instructional plans for each class to ensure the students achieve the course objectives. I give a hands-on approach in teaching film and audio production including screenwriting, how to operate the camera, audio recorders and other necessary equipment. I demonstrate the postproduction skills required to organize and edit the student’s footage. Throughout my classes, I cover a wide range of subjects from the history of cinema, to film analysis and discussion. The objective for every student is that they participate and develop their skills each year in making a film (fiction or nonfiction), increase their media literacy, their interpersonal skills and have fun.
