I'm proud to be part of a very creative team that has pioneered many new ideas and workflows that are now industry standard in sports' production. The Tour was the first broadcast show to adopt FCPX working for multiple editors on shared storage.īBC's Snooker has played a big part in my life, I've been editing tournament coverage since 1997.

2020 was my 25th year of editing the TdF and my 20th year as lead editor. The shows have also been nominated for a 2021 BAFTA.Īlthough both were postponed to later in the year, I worked again on ITV's coverage of the Tour de France and La Vuelta. It has been recommissioned by C4 for 60 episodes, including prime-time versions and five themed programmes. It has been a great success and the shows grabbed more viewers in the 4pm weekday slot than any previous strand. I also designed and built the majority of the graphics as Motion templates.

Though I haven't yet tried to herd a flock of sheep through the city centre! Current EditingĢ020 has been busy, the beginning of the year was finishing off a new property series (cut on FCP) for Channel 4 called The Great House Giveaway. I was made a Freeman of Lichfield through The Worshipful Company of Smiths (established 1601). Under the name Idustrial Revolution, I have written and sold plugins for Final Cut Pro for 13 years. I have also worked as a broadcast and corporate editor for over 30 years, starting on one inch tape, working through many formats, right up to today's NLEs. I am the Editor-in-Chief of FCP.co and have run the website since its inception ten years ago. (You can go into the ~/Movies/Motion Templates/Generators and remove the files you initially installed IF you have created a new category. You should find the effect within the category you have now created. If prompted, create a Category (SC_Generator or whatever you like - the name should already be supplied if not: name it 'Waving Flag' without quotes). If you have Motion 5, right click and Open in Motion. If not - select 'All' from the top of the categories list. Check to make sure the effect is in the Generators library under 'SC_Generator'. If a folder called SC_Generator already exists, then drop the Waving Flag folder inside SC_Generator, otherwise, create a folder named (preferably) SC_Generator (to keep sight-creations FCPX generators together) or anything you'd like to have appear in the Generators tab of FCPX.
