Joe de Ornelas

Joe stumbled across editing in the way many people stumble across things - by accident. Not realising his hobby of creating home movies and editing music videos together from bits of cartoons, Joe was enamoured by the discovery of film school. 

A chance encounter with a commercials director set the young film student on an editing apprenticeship adventure. In his 13 years in the industry Joe has travelled the country and world to cut commercials for Coca-Cola, Nestle, Whirlpool and Smirnoff. His endeavours extend to longer forms of content having edited music videos, series and documentaries, like the award-winning 'Beyond The Light Barrier.'  

For Joe, it’s about telling the story without the fluff and all of the nuance.

When not editing, Joe can be found running a trail or crocheting tiny hats.
