In Autumn 2021 I worked with multi-award winning director James Rogan as film editor and edit director on feature documentary FREDDIE MERCURY - THE FINAL ACT. The film won EMMY and ROSE D’OR awards, as well as being nominated for BAFTA, RTS and BANFF ROCKIES awards. Featuring interviews with those closest to Freddie - bandmates, family and friends - and unique archive footage, the film tracks Freddie’s final years alongside the story of AIDS as it developed into a global pandemic, emerging against a backdrop of prejudice and stigma.
