Skills
I’m offering
With over 15 years experience in both the production, post-production & live events industry,
I have worked in a broad selection of roles & responsibilities.
This has ranged from pre-production planning, budgeting, project management & client liaison, through to the creative side of pre-visualisation, storyboarding, directing, compositing & VFX supervision.
I am still self employed but work with two fellow colleagues under the umbrella name of Visual Edge.
Since 2017 we have worked on huge productions such as Eurovision, Jamiroquai’s world tour & World Athletics’ (formerly the IAAF) stadium events,
notably creating all digital and visual content (track projection mapping, broadcast idents, stadium VR to name but a few) for the World Championships in Doha 2019.
However, my skill sets are varied & flexible, ranging from motion graphics / visual effects & and animation in After Effects, CG skills in
Autodesk Maya & Unreal Engine, video editing in Adobe Premiere, presentations in Powerpoint and more.
I have a strong work ethic, notably my mantra being that “if you are going to do something, you’ve got to do it properly!”.
I pride myself on having an astute eye for detail, as well as being friendly but assertive to assure that projects are completed on time & to the best quality.
