James S.

My name is James Stanton and I am 26 years old. In 2008 I graduated from the university of wales, Newport BA (hons) Film and Video course with a 2:1 degree. I won several awards for the projects i worked on while at university and went on to set up a production company based in Bristol. I worked on various kinds of projects including a film commissioned by the national museum of wales in Cardiff as part of their origins exhibition. I also provided video projection for live events in Brighton and London as well as Bristol. I have always been a creative person but I also excel at any computer related skill. At university I was able to master several different kinds of software. Film editing, motion graphics, music production and sound design all came naturally to me while at university. After university I was able to teach myself various live video mixing programmes, which combined my creative flair with technical knowhow to create exciting visual accompaniment to musical acts. I have also branched out into graphic/web design using photoshop and illustrator. I'm currently working freelance as a video editor and motion graphics/digital effects artist.
