Available to hire
Hi, I’m Claire Cusack, a Video Editor and Junior VFX Artist based in Tullamore, Ireland. I have hands-on experience editing, colour grading, and compositing for film and TV, including work on student films and collaborations on projects for Disney, Marvel, Netflix, and Lucasfilm.
I’m proficient in Premiere Pro, Avid, After Effects, Nuke, Mocha, and Photoshop, and I’m passionate about storytelling through visuals. I’m detail-oriented, adaptable, and enjoy shaping pacing, transitions, and final deliverables from rough cuts to polished finishes.
