Last year, the team over at @leapingfoxfilms got in contact about editing a feature documentary about life in the Cotswolds, checking in with a cast of characters over the course of a calendar year. It was a pretty daunting task going into all that footage with only a loose outline for the story; I’m used to working with a script for structure, but doc editing is a very different beast. I’m happy to say that after a great deal of syncing, sorting, cutting and re-cutting, today we officially locked the edit! Hats off to the whole team for getting some incredible material, I couldn’t be more proud of the final product and I can’t wait for people to see it.

Been a big couple of months! From moving house, seeing @bloodbuzz_film at @deadnorthernofficial , and powering through the edits for @spookyblanketproductions and @cotswoldsfilm
Got an interesting project in the pipeline that I'm sure I'll start posting about imminently, but that's bubbling away in the background for now.
Burley, as always, is the best.
Christ, that's a big screen!
@bloodbuzz_film just had its premiere at @frightfestuk
Couldn't be prouder of editing this, stellar work from the sweetest crew and cast
Bring on the next festival!
Took a day drip to Manchester last week for the @indiehorrorsoc Indie Film Showcase. Saw some excellent work; horror is such a malleable genre and that's never clearer than when you watch thirteen short films back to back.
Special shout out to @thepizzamovie for its surprisingly pornographic pizza sequences, @bathbombhorror for its colourful use of prosthetic penises, and @nettledayfilm for successfully setting Wicker Man in a school. Not a single bad one of the bunch.
Work begins on the assembly edit for Field & Folk! 🌳
It's an exceptionally pretty documentary about regenerative farming in the Cotswolds, which is going to make an interesting change of pace from the monster movies I've been working on lately.

Swipe for a picture of dearest Burley; she's a terrible edit assistant but she does keep me sane. 🐾
