Employer: Hooligan The Movie Ltd

Position: Lead Editor and 2nd unit director

In July 2011 the independent production company Hooligan the Movie Ltd set up to make documentary feature film on the international football hooligan scene. Although the idea for the film was in place no story or script had been developed which made the production challenging. After detailed consultation with the producers I organised all the media into a narrative form that could then develop into the final story.  Any gaps in the final story there was no footage for I filmed cut away material and dramatic sequences to complete the final film. International footage from various countries also had to be translated by contributors and over dubs recorded to complete the final production.
