Projects
- LeeFestIn the summer of 2014 and 2016, I was hired as Leefest's in-house editor over the festival weekend. A wonderfully frenetic weekend involved me ingesting countless performances in different formats, organising the vast FCP Library that accumulated whilst also editing live performances and promos to go online the next day. 2016's weekend included a creative brief of editing a short narrative piece to accompany the festival's theme of entering 'The Neverland'. The film was shot on Red Dragon 6K, and all organised, edited and graded in FCPX in a tight weeklong turnaround.
- The Safe House: A Decline of IdeasAn ambitious documentary project from award winning poet Greta Bellamacina and journalist Davina Catt, The Safe House: A Decline of Ideas takes us through the working class origins of public libraries until now, their very future in disarray. Tasked with creating coherence and emotion to days of footage in an hour documentary, I used FCPX to catalogue, edit, colour grade and share multiple rough cuts and XMLs with the directors, as well as creating the trailer below. Due for release in late 2015, The Safe House proved to be an edit of attrition, perfecting the smallest details, whilst consistently achieving deadlines and successful collaborations.
