I'm Simon, a freelance editor, camera operator and drone operator.

After studying Film & Television Production and Post-Production at SBCC in California, I began my career in
film and TV post-production, spending three years at Halo, a post-production company in London,
before taking on a role as an editor at Above + Beyond, an advertising agency.

Since 2016, I have worked as a self-employed editor, camera operator and drone operator (A2 CofC certified), freelancing for a variety of production companies and clients, as well as co-founding Paper Boat Documentaries, a small video production business.

As an editor, my work has involved cutting branded video content, mood films, TVC’s, cinema ads, digital spots and internal content for agencies including Above + Beyond, Uncommon, Media Monks, Brooklyn Brothers and Fallon. I've edited content for brands such as British Airways, Amazon, Sky, ITV, American Express, Pinterest, B&Q, M&S, Guinness and Hiscox.

As a camera operator, I've filmed a wide range of content for clients including Canva, the NHS, Unilever,
Ted Baker, Innocent, Eurotunnel, Electrolux, Tisserand Aromatherapy and Peter's Yard.

I have my own camera, drone and sound equipment, as well as a private edit suite
for remote editing work. I am also available for on-site projects.

I'm based in the South East of the UK and am happy to travel for projects.
