Editor on series, designed and programmed motion graphics. Remote (Screenshare & Lucid Link/Postlab) & in-house editing.

One of my programmes that I edited from Series 2. Made right in the middle of lockdown — everything was done remotely using the amazing capabilities of Lucid Link. I designed and tested the workflow and it worked a treat!

World Championship Snooker

BBC One & BBC Two
RTS Nominated · BAFTA Nominated

Editor on BBC Triple Crown events since 1997. On site and remote editing, graphic design and workflow consultancy.

At fourteen minutes long, this look back at Sheffield and the history of snooker at The Crucible went out during the mid-session interval in the final — an example of editing a story from many different sources and formats, including a lot of archive footage.

One of my favourite openers in 22 years — for the final session in 2021. Over 6 hours of 100 FPS material boiled down in a day on site in Sheffield. Superb camerawork from Mark Pert and Tom Adair using the probe lens.
