"Helen is definitely my editor of choice. Quick, creative and versatile - she's equally at home with investigative current affairs or fast-paced factual entertainment. She is particularly good at sound design/cutting to music and has excellent attention to detail because every frame genuinely counts. I cannot recommend her highly enough."
Ceri Aston, Head of Development, BBC Religion & Ethics
"Helen is a creative editor with a passion for music and creating great sequences alongside an intelligent and rigorous approach to storytelling."Liz Bloor, Producer/Director, Panorama , BBC
I am a flexible, creative and fast editor with an intelligent approach to contemporary story-telling. I have 12 years experience of working across the main channels, successfully meeting a diverse range of audience, producer and channel expectations often to tight deadlines.
FCP and Avid, Mini DV to HD, celeb reality to serious documentary, my priority is interpreting and realising the director’s vision, telling stories in an exciting and engaging way, using picture and sound sensitively and expressively to draw in the audience.
I have extensive experience of working closely with journalists and documentary makers on current affairs programmes, feature docs and factual entertainment programmes, for BBC News and Current Affairs, BBC3 BBC4 and Channel4 and many programmes I have worked on have won or been nominated for national awards. I offer an intelligent second pair of ears and eyes enabling the PD/editor team to craft exceptional arguments and stories with impact and style: carrying the film's message effectively.
I have a particular flair for working with music and audio and really enjoy sound design as part of the editing process.
I have worked as one of the FCP 'edit mentors' on "The One Show" in Manchester. This role involved supporting production staff learning to self edit on FCP.
I have a home edit facility ‘Knitted Yarn’, based in Old Trafford, 5 minutes from Manchester city centre. With lots of light and doors opening onto a secret garden, its a very creative environment to work in. With FCP 7, Avid Xpress Pro HD, After Effects, Photoshop and Logic Audio, its ideal for broadcast offline and corporate /web jobs. Call me for more info.
