About me

Dear Sir/Madam,

RE: VIDEO PRODUCER VACANCY

I am a highly experienced video producer, director & editor, fully conversant with Final Cut Pro and After Effects, as well as many tools used in the encoding of video (Quicktime Pro, Compressor etc.) and various DVD authoring suites (DVD Studio Pro, Adobe Encore etc.), Adobe Audition for sound recording/engineering and a little Photoshop.

On top of that, I have extensive experience in lighting and shooting one-on-one interviews (single and two camera) and live events as diverse as movie premieres, press conferences, live music, kickboxing and professional wrestling.

A significant part of my current role is the filming, editing and encoding for online and mobile of movie premieres, press conferences and star interviews. This includes high-profile work on the Harry Potter series, Star Trek, the Twilight saga, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, The Dark Knight, the London Film Festival and for many other big clients including Warner Bros., Yahoo!, Red Bull, Channel 5 and MSN.

Prior to that, I had sole responsibility in producing, directing and editing a weekly, hour-long show for the now-defunct Fight Network (Sky 427). Among other things, this involved pioneering a way to record sports entertainment events which had previously not been attempted in the UK, the vetting, hiring and supervision of freelance camera operators, preparing a programme to UK broadcast standards and all connected paperwork.

I've put together a bespoke portfolio of my work at */, viewable only by you. The password is "video".

I have experience of working under pressure to tight, recurrent deadlines and to exacting quality standards.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours faithfully,

Kieran Lefort
