My name is Damon Warde and I’ve had a long-standing passion for media, beginning with school projects and evolving into a focused career path in film and video production. I love the process of creating content—from concept to final piece—and I’m always curious about how and why different media are made. Over the years I’ve worked on stop-motion projects, football clips, and gameplay videos, continually refining my camera work and editing skills along the way. After finishing school I joined my local rugby club as a media production team member, filming, editing, and running their social media channels. I’ve since freelanced across various sectors, spent time as a content creator at Hook Digital, and I’m now in my first year at Manchester Metropolitan University studying Filmmaking, actively seeking external opportunities to grow my career alongside my degree.
