Hi, I'm Martin Weinberg, a seasoned Film and Video Editor with over 20 years of experience working primarily with the BBC and other broadcasters. My expertise lies in creatively crafting narratives through editing on major platforms such as Avid, Premiere, and Final Cut Pro X, across documentaries, current affairs, and flagship TV programs. I thrive in fast-paced environments and enjoy telling compelling stories through the grammar and syntax of pictures. Throughout my career, I've edited a wide range of content from award-winning documentaries to corporate videos for leading clients like Microsoft and BlackBerry. I'm also passionate about mentoring the next generation of editors and regularly lecture on post-production at film schools. Outside of editing, I have a quirky knack for gardening and, thanks to a Netflix drama cut, an interesting insight into how to poison someone slowly—truly a rare find in the editing world!
