Hello!

Colin Gardiner

Off-line Editor

I have been offline editing over 20 years and in that time I’ve worked on wide variety of different genres. From True Crime with the usual dramatic reconstructions and presenter led doc series to prime-time factual entertainment and fast turnaround daytimes shows. Read more...

About Me

Ah, Great!

You found me.

Well, as you’re here, you might want to have a look around and see the sort of thing I’ve been up to and maybe even download my latest CV. And, as you’ve already read this far you may as well continue to the part where I big myself up a bit.

If I have a secret weapon, it’s a fairly simple one. I really enjoy what I do, and I like to think that comes across in my work. For me, editing should be a collaborative process and I love throwing ideas around (when there’s time!). I love to be as creative as I can with the footage I’m given and my excellent sense for pacing allows me to create drama and mood.

I’m methodical with my projects and take pride in creating a clear system of organisation. I have often taken on the lead editor role and instigated improvements to project structures, ensuring that everything is bullet proof. 

I have great relationships with many of my production team colleagues and if you head to my testimonial page, you can read all the nice things they have to say about me.

I am primarily based in Cardiff and Bristol, but I also have a great home set up with fibre broadband and have completed many projects remotely using Parsec.

I hope you like what you see, and if you do, please get in touch!

If you want a fantastic editor with a super strong editorial head, a creative brain and a wonderful collaborative partnership ….then look no further! I’ve worked with Colin G on so many projects, from fast turn around daytime, prime time fact ent and a presenter led doc series. As an EP I am NEVER disappointed with what he delivers in terms of his cuts, commitment and eye for detail. I can’t think of a more lovely person to work with.  Don’t hesitate!!

Colin has been an editor on many of Curve Media Wales’ daytime series, over several years, and it’s always been a very positive experience. He is dedicated, thorough, creative, a great team player – and a lovely person too. I have no hesitation recommending him to other companies.

It’s always a pleasure to work with Colin. He’s a great editor who edits quickly and with flair. Even on the busiest productions he is always focussed on producing work of the highest quality. He’s also a great team player – an editor who will flag any problems coming up the line and who has always got your back.

I’ve worked with Colin on two fast turnaround productions and found him one of the most “can do” editors I’ve worked with. Creative and resourceful, he edits sequences giving them real sparkle. Editorially he’s strong and he’s very collaborative creating a good rapport with his producer.
