I began Video Editing 9 years ago using Sony Vegas, initially as a hobby creating my own Stop-Motion Animations and editing them together. My enthusiasm for editing and portfolio of videos led to a week's work experience at a special effects company in London (Smoke And Mirrors) whilst still in school. My Video Editing skills are completely self taught and I continue to find new ways of editing video together and overcoming editing challenges. I also have experience in creating YouTube video content including adding humour through subtitles and audio effects. I currently have a YouTube Channel in which I edit gaming videos in an entertaining way and is growing in popularity. (See recent video example in Portfolio). I'm really keen to use my skills in the workplace and I would love the opportunity to complete your job!
