About Verity

  • Share profile:
    Hello!
    I am a bright and focussed worker with a love of video production. I have so far gained good experience across all sectors of the video production industry, including having spent almost a year working as a Production Assistant as well as junior editor at a corporate video company. However my focus and passion has always been video production and I am now looking to move my career into the world of television production.

    I am no stranger to hard work, deadlines or mucking in to get a job done as you can see from my previous work experience. I am calm and professional under pressure and always wear a smile when I work.
    I have spent the past 9 months assisting and filming on shoots, arranging transport, editing and managing the production office.

    I have experienced using Final Cut Pro from 9 months editing at my current position at ThePeloton, as well as a good understanding of camera technology (Sony EX1, EX3+Z1, Panasonic HVX200, Canon XL-2) from practice on personal and professional projects and through my Technical degree.

    I also have a full clean UK driving licence!
