A Hero’s Job
Client: Scottish Commonwealth Games
I was asked to shoot and edit a film with Commonwealth Games Scotland to launch their social media activity ahead of the 2022 Commonwealth Games. A Hero’s Job looked at what it meant to be a sporting hero in the context of inspiring a generation. I was tasked with filming and editing the poem created for the piece using a mix of archive footage along with footage I shot for the film. In the edit I styled the piece to have more nostalgic feel with black bars at the side and usage of faded film as well. The piece received a good reaction generating over 80,000 views and was featured on BBC Scotland’s Sport pages.
