Holly Winship

I live, work and breathe in London. I was accepted at Wells Cathedral School in Somerset as a music specialist. After school, I took an Apprenticeship in Creative and Digital Media. Through that I learned graphic design, how to shoot a short film, create a sound sequence and also completed a work placement at a news agency.
This prepared me for work in the media industry and I’ve been working at various post-production houses in central London for the last seven years. I currently work in a visual effects house, prepping all the incoming media for our VFX suites and CG floor and quality checking the finished advert before sending it to broadcast. I also edit the company showreels and ‘Making Of’ videos.
My experience in post-production in tandem with my musical foundations has developed into a passion for video editing. I felt I needed on-set experience in order to fully understand the film-making process and take my editing skills to the next level. So when I saw the opportunity to get involved with Newmains United I jumped at the chance – despite the distance!
