Mike Brierley

Editor

PROFILE

With over 15 years of editing experience including factual entertainment, observational documentary & and studio work Mike has credits with many major production companies & broadcasters. He can cover both off and online & is happy to work with single or multi camera footage.

Mike’s career started out working on location as a camera assistant (single camera and OB’s) before discovering editing. Understanding
the mechanics of a shoot has been an invaluable asset in the edit. Also learning to cut in the technical maze of a tape suite before moving to the straightforward world of non-linear & avid has given him a solid & confident technical foundation!

Mike loves the challenges an edit can offer! Taking raw footage, adding structure, meaning & insight, working with music & effects, endeavoring to create something unique!
