Read MoreEver since I was introduced to the world of Colour grading and editing moving image, I fell in love. I was amazed by how you could influence the films final look and manipulate all the colours you see on screen. It's a tedious job but I love it. Using the industry-standard software programs to grade and edit including DaVinci Resolve Studio 16 to grade and Premiere Pro mainly to edit. But can use others.
I have been editing and grading for about 3-4 years and I still love it as much as when I started. Editing I find so fun and love exploring new techniques and ways to edit more creatively and follow the brief. Through working in different styles with different requirements, equipment, and directors, I have gained a lot of invaluable experience.I am now a Editor and Colourist based in London at Cincera Productions but am still available for freelance work. I've edited a full-length feature film from start to finish, working with VFX houses and Post Houses across the country. Have also been a judge at the Royal Television Awards on the grading panel, for shows such as BBC’s Dynasties: Lion, Great British Bake Off: Final, South Korea: Earth's Hidden Wilderness and more. Worked with some commercial companies on product promo videos. Music videos and much more in my experience.
I feel I bring fresh and creative ideas to my edits and bring what the client wants to screen!My ultimate goal is to become a Master Colourist and work on many feature films/shorts and advertisements.
I would love to learn and explore more of the post-production process too.
I really enjoy learning new things and showcase a level of determination and perseverance.
Read LessI worked with Alex on my debut short drama. He showed a true investment in really getting to grips with understanding my vision for the look and feel of the film and subsequently the grade. He then presented me with some base looks to choose from and we went from there. He really took direction as any professional would hope to but it was easy spending time with Alex and it made the whole experience smooth. He always keenly tried what I asked even if I was some of the time heading in the wrong direction. Alex is very skilled at what he does and truly elevates the production value of everything he works on. Add to that he is great with whomever you have in the room with him and you're onto an assured, high quality, invaluable artist.
