Financial Interest is an educational platform that teaches people the basics of personal finance that everyone should have been taught in school. I currently create long form content for their YouTube channel that covers a wide range of topics within the world of personal finance. Financial Interest is also co-owned by DamienTalksMoney, who is one of the biggest personal finance YouTubers in the UK, and we have collaborated on occasions.

Lingumi is a language tutorial app for children to help them learn English. My role as a freelance editor is to take the raw footage filmed in house, colour grade it to make it pop off the screen, and produce hundreds of short story-based videos for the kids to learn from. This includes sourcing assets from Envato and building an entire world for each of the characters from scratch, with the help of a few assets provided by our graphic design team!

At DiamondLobby, I was responsible for producing content on two of their YouTube channels, one was a gaming tutorial channel and the other was more entertaining videos based solely around the WWE 2K games. I learned a lot while working here from how to script specifically for YouTube, to how to edit the videos in order to retain as much engagement as possible. Since working here I have improved my editing skills even further and still have the YouTube knowledge on my side as well.
