    .............................................................................................................................................................................

    I am a young video maker living in the UK. I grew up in The Cotswolds and
    have been interested and intrigued by the fascinating world of lm making
    since 2011.From the age of 13 Ive been creating lms in a small group of
    friends several of which winning awards.

    I am a very self-motivated person and extremely creatively driven. I am fully


    aware of the technicalities of the industry but prefer to strike a more creative
    flare whilst forever maintaining essential technical skills. I am always open to
    new and better ways of doing things and I never let not knowing about
    something stop me - I just teach myself. During the last few years, I have
    been doing everything I can to learn as much as possible about lm-making
    of off my own back and collaborating with friends and clients to further my
    talents. At home I am always very busy making lms, both for clients and my
    own lms which I produce in my spare time. I like all the practicalities of
    production, because it's 'hands on'. I am also fascinated by the process and
    techniques involved in creating visual effects. I have a good range of camera
    equipment and professional editing software, so that I can be more versatile
    and increase my creative abilities. Im well qualied in both editing and VFX. I
    work at a relentless pace and do not allow myself to stop until I have
    perfected the product to the very best of my abilities. Im always entreated to
    collaborate and learn more in addition to my ambition to one day direct a
    feature lm.

    EXPERIENCE

    .............................................................................................................................................................................

    I have been lmmaking for four years, educating myself with no one to hold
    my hand. When I rst began: I started with windows movie maker and a 20
    flip out camera. Since then: my work has been commissioned and aired on
    popular television channels.
    I have explored a wide range of skills, such as: photography & photo
    manipulation, sound design, editing, cinematography, visual effects and much
    more. However my professional experience lies within visual effects and
    motion graphics.

    show reel summary of my work can be found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdv-T8Uh1XU&feature=youtube
    From July to September of 2014: I was offered a full time placement at
    Dream Team Television, to adopt the role of motion graphics artist. I was
    responsible for the production of every single motion graphic contained
    within the programmes from said dates. I worked mostly with Adobe After
    Effects, however I did, on occasion; encounter both Photoshop and Avid
    Media Composer.
    I took a 9 5 placement and worked alongside professional editors and
    camera operators. My work for Dream Team has been viewed on popular
    television channels such as Channel 4 and Sky Sports. Despite my desire to
    continue with Dream Team: I had to return to education at the beginning of
    September. I do however work freelance on occasion for the company.
    Although I have only had one professional work placement: I feel my
    knowledge and experience with lmmaking is very valuable. Hopefully my
    work reflects and demonstrates my skill and commitment to the profession.
