I'm exceptionally fast, well organized and have a great sense of comic timing. There's always laughter coming from my edit suite, no matter what I'm working on.

Experience	I've been working 40 years as a film and video picture editor and I still love my job! I get the most satisfaction from cutting long form documentaries, doc series, fiction and comedy. For much of my career I have focused on long form social issue documentaries, but I have also edited music docs, comedy TV shows, theatrical feature films, children's programmes, reality and lifestyle series.
Education	Graduate of the London Film School, The Art and Technique of Film-making, 1976
Speciality	I have a good sense of story and structure and have been called in to rescue several long form documentaries that have lost their way in the edit suite. I just wish the producers had hired me first! ;) I'm bi-lingual and can work in French as well as English. I have a basic knowledge of Spanish. However, I have worked on many projects in unfamiliar languages: Cantonese, Arabic, Hebrew, Greek and Turkish and have been able to edit these accurately with the aid of translated transcripts.
Software Proficiency	AVID MC, FCP7, Premiere Pro
