Will Rothwell

I’m a Bristol-based freelance Editor with experience across documentary, natural history, true crime and adventure filmmaking as a Junior Editor on big TV non-scripted productions for BBC, Sky and National Geographic, as well as Freelance editing for an adventure documentary pilot. I love finding the story within complex material, from interviews and observational footage to extensive archive. I’m confident working independently, collaborating with producers and directors, and developing edits through multiple rounds of feedback.

I am proficient on Avid & DaVinci Resolve, with good experience also using Adobe suite, and a range of technical tools related to video editing, graphics and media management.
