Joel Corby

Editor

PROFILE

With over 20 years experience in the TV and Film industry, Joel has worked as an offline & online editor and colourist across many different genres. He is very sociable, upbeat, creative and passionate about delivering high quality content.

Equally comfortable operating alone & managing his own time as being part of a team, Joel is used to working to tight scheduling/broadcast deadlines. He has a strong eye for detail and is fastidious about quality and broadcast standards. He takes an interest in new industry related technology from the cameras to post production techniques .

His passion for the industry started from a young age as his childhood was spent on film sets at Pinewood and Shepperton Studios. Joel knew from his early teens this was the career he wanted!

Having been a freelancer since 2001 we are so pleased that Joel chose TOVS as the agency to help look after his career & we are very proud to have him on the books!
