Solly Bowyer
I came to the course with an interest in documentary, however over the three years I've found an equal love for narrative filmmaking. Having edited on all main productions I've developed an interest in learning how to bring rushes to life. I enjoy working closely with a director to get the most out of their screenplay, selecting performances, balancing exposition and building tension.
I developed my knowledge of Premiere Pro in first year. I then moved on to industry standard softwares, such as Davinci Resolve and Avid Media Composer.
Through 2nd and 3rd year I’ve kept up with freelance work
