One film, start to finish. Cut, colour, sound, delivery.
Selected work. Out on the day I said.
Brands, channels and directors. Most of them come back.
Eight of my last ten projects came from people I’d cut for before. These are the project files I’ve opened most recently.

Questions. Marked where people usually ask them.
Still unsure? Write to me and I’ll answer the same day.
A two-minute brand film takes a working week from the day the drives arrive: assembly on Monday, notes midweek, files on Thursday or Friday. Longer films get a schedule in writing before I start.
No. I edit, grade and mix. I can recommend crews in Atlanta I’ve worked with for years, and I’m happy to look over a shot list so the edit goes smoothly.
Premiere Pro for most edits and DaVinci Resolve for colour and finishing. I can open your projects from either and hand back a clean, organised project at the end.
Two rounds on every edit, and most films lock after the second. Extra rounds are billed by the hour, and I’ll tell you before we get there.
Post the drives or upload to a shared folder. I copy and check everything on the day it arrives and send you a list of what came in.
Yes. I often cut to an agency’s brief, deliver into their review tool and name files the way their team already does.
Journal. Notes from the suite.
Cutting to breath, not to the beat
Why the rider’s breathing set the pace of Long Climb, and how to find a rhythm in footage that has no music yet.

What I need from you on day one
A short list that saves a day on every project: the drives, a brief in one paragraph and the date it has to go out.
