Video editor, sound designer & post production generalist.
I make content that’s impactful and emotive. At Element Animation I helped build viral Minecraft campaigns with hundreds of millions of views, and I composed and mixed the music and sound for Minecraft Live, including its official anthem. Now I edit documentaries, travel vlogs and brand films, finding the story in hours of raw footage, and I can score it too.

“I haven't made a YouTube video in a long time, actually, because it goes to my amazing video editor, Paul. He does the video editing very, very close to how I used to do it. He's the only video editor I've found, and I've tried quite a lot over the years, that edits in a way that makes me proud.”

About me.
Hi, I’m Paul. I’ve spent 15+ years finding stories in raw footage.
At Element Animation I built Minecraft campaigns for Mojang and Microsoft. More recently I’ve edited travel vlogs and brand documentaries, weaving interviews and footage into coherent narratives, and made television for Estuary TV and content for brands including Starbucks UK.
Here’s what drives the work: I love the small stuff. The meticulous timing of a cut, the music drop, the right sound to create a perfect moment. Those moments shape how a whole project feels, and that attention to detail is how footage goes from competent to compelling.
I can do flashy cuts and transitions, but I know the difference between flash and substance. The story comes first, always. Stories that hit, with sound to match.
It started young, designing membership cards for a Star Wars club in CorelDRAW, and I’ve been making things ever since, including photography. The pictures here are a few of mine.
Working with me.
I don’t just cut what I’m given. I’ve worked across the whole pipeline, so I know how early decisions shape what’s possible later.
- Story first. Hours of material in, something that lands out.
- The small stuff. Cut timing, the music drop and the right sound are what lift a project from competent to compelling.
- The whole pipeline. Ideation, writing, storyboarding, on set and post production.
- My own tools. AI transcription for captions and a custom editor for vertical formats, built to make the work faster.
- Bespoke music. I come from music production and composition, so if you need something scored I can do it.
