Great Products are not the result of a burst of creativity.
They come from joy of experimentation and from extraordinary attention to detail.

Biography

I am a multi-award winning Film Editor of commercials, music videos, short films, and feature films. I started as a Cutting Room Runner at the age of 18 at DGW Ltd London. There I served a seven year apprenticeship in 35mm Film Editing and officially became a Film Editor at the age of 25.

I have worked with notable directors such as:

Chris Hartwill, Steve Lowe, Marek Kanievska, Adrian Moat, Jordan Scott, Chris Cunningham, Sean Ellis, Thed Lensen, John Marles, Barry Skolnick, Hugh Johnson, Daniel Levy, Trevor Robinson OBE, Kevin Molony, Henrik Hansen, Tim Saccenti, Martin Wonnacott,Tony Kaye, Thomas Napper, Dawn Shadforth, Pete Bishop, Eva Midgley, Lee Ford and Dan Brooks, Carl Erik Rinsch, Ben and Joe Dempsey, Grace Audrey Kim, Jake Nava, Emile Nava, Matthew Vaughn, Dave Meyers, Tom Ford, Klaus Obermeyer, Johnny Hardstaff, Danny Clinch, TG Herrington, Jacob Rosenberg, Sir Ridley Scott, and Joe Pytka.

In 2000 I edited the British prison movie ‘Mean Machine’ starring Vinnie Jones and Jason Statham, directed by Barry Skolnick and produced by Guy Ritchie and Matthew Vaughn. In 2005 I edited ‘Cashback’, an 18-minute short film directed by Sean Ellis, which won 12 major International Film Festivals and secured an Oscar Nomination in the 2006 Academy Awards.In 2010 I won the top honour ‘Grand Prix’ at the Cannes Lions Festival, for the editing of the short film ‘Phillips – The Gift’. In 2016 I edited the feature film ‘A Tuba To Cuba’ which won six film festivals and got 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Among many projects with artist and director Chris Cunningham, I edited the fifteen minute art film ‘Flex’ which was exhibited in the Royal Academy of Art in London as part of the ‘Apocalypse’ exhibition. In addition to editing, I have won multiple awards for sound design, including a D&AD award for best sound design for the eight minute short film ‘Sony Playstation – The Future Of Gaming’. I have been living in New York City for the last eleven years, working for Cut and Run NYC/London for over 15 years and Beast Editorial NYC for the last four years and I look forward to continuing being involved in the world of film making.

Hope you like it and enjoy the magic…and a Coke.
