I am a creative writer, director, and editor. For fifteen-plus years, I have worked in the world of promotions, social content, and advertising, producing (often, but not always) stand-out creative work. With a passion for design, I love collaborating with motion graphic designers to bring work to life.
As a director, I have countless hours of on-set experience and like nothing more than to skew my work towards the humourous side.
While working with broadcasters, brands and agencies such as the BBC, Channel 4, TFL, The Enquirer, Virgin, Sky Creative, Karmarama, The Midnight Club, Fall of the Wall, and MTV, I have helped create award-winning work television, social, and print, been involved in priority rebrands, shoots, and events, I have also produced internal films and even had people weeping (with joy) at the occasional leaving video.
At the start of any job, though, there’s me, in a room. With a pen.
With a passion for creative writing, I am always happy when thinking up ideas and attempting to turn them into something exciting. Whether I’m working in a team on a heavyweight marketing campaign or alone on a humble brief that appears uninspiring, I use the brand voice, along with all the available insight (and a little help from the universe), to deliver concepts, pitches, scripts, tag lines, names for the new breakout area, or anything in between.
As an experienced video editor with a strong post-production background and knowledge of digital workflow, I use Adobe Premiere or Avid Media Composer to create stand-out promos, social content, trailers, sizzles, interviews, or case studies.
I enjoy cutting fun, fast-cut trails that grab your attention but also epic, emotive-looking pieces that really tickle the hairs on the back of the neck.
With colour grading skills, I can deliver and format your videos for social platforms or anywhere else you want to show them off.
So, if you need ideas, scripts, video editing, or a proposition said twenty different ways, or a bit of everything… just shout.
I currently work 100% remotely.
