I am a multi-faceted video editor and videographer with more than 9 years’ experience in developing and producing high quality, engaging and innovative video and graphic content. I have expert knowledge of Adobe Premiere Pro and seamlessly incorporate After Effects and Photoshop to enhance my video productions. I am a technically proficient camera operator capable of filming on multiple types of cameras and am competent with lighting setups and sound recording. I have produced multiple types of video content, including: corporate interviews, tutorial videos, YouTube lifestyle shows, promo and explainer videos, stop-motion animations, multiple live music events, and music videos.
I am well-versed in all aspects of video production, from pre- to post-production, including scripting, production setup, directing, camera operation, video editing and content management. I work well as part of a production team or independently. I have a solid understanding of story-telling techniques and am driven to understand the purpose and artistic vision behind any project to create engaging video content with a message.
I have created content for multiple audiences and across most social media channels, having utilised various types of production software, including Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, Adobe Audition, Final Cut X, Twixtor Pro, Red Giant Universe, and Magic Bullet Looks. I am able to generate compelling ideas and concepts and use my technical abilities to see this through production and into a high-quality and engaging end product. I strive to keep up to date with trends in the industry to ensure that I always have the advantage of new technologies or creative practices.
