Hi, I’m Toby Cooper, a curious and creative professional based in Bristol with a wide range of experience across multiple sectors. I hold an MA in Film and Television from the University of Bristol and a BA in History, and I’m passionate about creating original, thought-provoking content that cuts through the noise. I’m developing my writing, directing, production, camera and editing skills through independent projects as part of a creative collective spanning London, Bristol and the Midlands, as well as freelance videography work focused on live events and visual content for musicians. I’m excited to connect, collaborate with and learn from talented creatives across the Film, TV and Music industries. I work with DaVinci Resolve for editing and colour grading and with Ableton Live for music/sound. I have experience with DSLR and Blackmagic Ursa Pro cameras and Zoom audio equipment, and I bring strong IT skills, a full UK driving licence and access to a car.
