About

I’m Tarik Khan, a post-production and operations professional with over four years’ experience supporting fast-paced commercial, music, branded, and social content at Pulse Films / VICE Media. I manage day-to-day post workflows in tools like Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro, and DaVinci Resolve—handling ingest, exports, AAF/EDL workflows, file delivery, codecs, and high-resolution media with a strong focus on accuracy and deadline-driven delivery.

I also bring a people-first, calm approach developed through frontline customer service experience at Harrow Council, where I supported residents through complex queries, sensitive situations, and administrative systems while communicating clearly and compassionately. Alongside my technical media skills, I create engaging short-form content (including 9:16 and 1:1 formats), prepare director reels and pitch edits, and coordinate multiple priorities across hybrid environments and creative teams.
