Laurence is an editor based in Sydney, Australia who works across commercial and long-form projects.
Recent work includes the second season of Corona Free Range Humans, and TV Drama Cloudy River, which has made its way around the world on various platforms.
He is inspired by the challenges and possibilities of storytelling within both short and long-form narratives, often grappling with complex themes to form stirring pieces such as the 2015 mockumentary Psychoanalysis, and feature films Nerve and The Pretend One. It’s funny what we learn from being confined to thirty seconds, which can shorthand bigger ideas and alternatively the crucial beats of a character’s development to tell the minimal story.
A passionate cook (and wannabe Heston) who is a firm believer in the parallels between cooking and editing. On both inferences, we are making a recipe where balance, taste, and love add to the flavour.
Based in Sydney with suites in both Sydney/Melbourne and available for work internationally.
