Senior Technical Editor.

In 2018, Flavourworks Studios was a small start up with a big vision: to create the first live-action game of its kind by applying their revolutionary game engine which had the ability to transform film footage into touch interactions. This required the bespoke role of an editor who also had some game design knowledge and understanding of coding, and so I was hired for an initial period of a month to focus on editing the interactive side of the game. A month turned into a year and a half of editing, designing and creating a coherent symbiosis between conventional cutting and a completely new video game engine. And so Erica was released in 2019 through Sony Interactive on PlayStation4 and was praised for its uniqueness and style and my collaboration with the studio would continue for years on multiple other games.
