About me

Aspiring Instructional Designer, Videographer, Content Developer, Motion Designer, Multimedia Specialist, Video Editor you get the picture… Multi-disciplined and love to dabble in all kinds of work creative, digital and interactive. My experience as an Instructional Designer has moulded my professional character and given me insight into the impact good design has on global communication. I enjoy different challenges that fuel my ambition and take my career to the next level. Beyond my enthusiasm, I am also a bit of a techie with a few tricks up my sleeve and aside from being versed in most of the Adobe suite, I love to edit in Premiere Pro and have the ability to deliver dynamic videos to deadline. I am very resourceful when taking on new projects and if there are any programs I don't know much about, it won't be for long!

Projects

• RaindropsOne of the first videos I ever did, getting a bit of practice during a photo shoot. I am quite proud of some of the edits I included and that I pieced together two different songs. It is however quite an old video and I have learnt a lot since then about length of videos, recording in portrait and editing to music. Still one of my favourite pieces of work though.
• Autumn colour lookThis was a tutorial video for Clarins make-up, I like the colours and the composition of some of the shots. This was a great freelance job as I got a bit of work from them and lots of practice with filming.
• Commercial Acumen ProgrammeThis was one of my first interview style videos I did during my time working for Grant Thornton. It was set-up as a few testimonials to promote a training workshop. I had access to the company branding for videos but it was fun to play around a bit with the intro's and colours. Favourite bit from: 02:10 if you want to skip ahead.
