I am a video editor hailing from South Africa, but reside in Taiwan. I am mainly looking for remote video editing work, but if a good enough deal comes along I could be persuaded to relocate. I am always very serious about whatever project I undertake, and put my all into whatever work I do, as I believe that whatever you do is a reflection of ones personal character. Other than video editing I have a specialization in underwater macro photography and video.
