Hi, I’m Elliott Miles, a dedicated video editor with strong experience in narrative and promotional projects. I craft pacing, tone, and color to bring stories to life, collaborating closely with directors, clients, and creative teams to deliver engaging results on time and within brief. My most recent project, Matrescence, was screened at the British Film Institute (BFI) South Bank and won the Rain Dance Award for Best Short Film; I shaped the story as both Editor and Colourist, and I continue to push the boundaries with sound design, VFX, and immersive storytelling.
