I'm offering
My names Darius Midcalf. I'm a passionate, hardworking, and self-driven person, with 6 years editing experience in Post-Production Editing and 2D/3D visual effects. I use a range of different software’s and a small list of what I can do are; assembly cuts, full edits, transcoding, media archiving, rotoscoping, 3D/2D visual effects, tracking, motion graphics, audio syncing.
For the last two years, I've been working freelance creating adverts and Idents for companies/businesses, but also doing other various editing/visual effects work. Some of these companies/businesses are: The British Hemp Company, Ping Culture, UCA Film Department.
Currently, I’m a part-time promo editor for Cahootify, but I am looking for other freelance/full-time jobs in Editing or VFX. I've also worked on several short films along with my freelance work, two of which are in festivals and three that are award-winning.
I have a key eye for detail in my work, I have great communication skills, I understand briefs and directorial notes perfectly, and I can work great under time restraints. I’m well organised and will to the best of my ability, make a finished product both myself and the client will be proud of.
