Nick Swinglehurst | Film and Video Editor

ABOUT ME

I am a Kiwi film and video editor based in Wellingon. I'm expert in Final Cut Pro and Avid. For over eight years, I have edited short films, trailers and factual shorts.

Recently I've worked on several NZ feature films. I co-edited Eternity and Contract Killers and did behind the scenes for Existence and Good For Nothing. All four of these are due for release in 2012.

I spent several years in London cutting trailers, TV commercials for big name clients, music videos for Top 10 artists and many short films.

In addition to my story editing skills, my technical expertise includes compositing; grading; shot cleanup and object removal; and delivery for DVD, mobile and the web.

I have also worked as a data wrangler; video and DSLR camera operator; VFX supervisor and post-production facility manager.

I have produced rich media for virals, Flash and the web; run live web broadcasts; extensive videogame capture; authored Shockwave, HTML and Wordpress.

I am also a trained screenwriter. Six of my commercial and short film scripts have been produced, including Leftovers and Carma.
