Film Edits by Ben Wain

Like still photography, I enjoy filming as a hobby and have not taken it to higher qualifications. I have only made sport-related videos so far, four full length DVD's to date and each one taking over a year to make. I found taking a project from early planning right through to the final stages of editing and branding challenging but rewarding. I wouldn't have done four otherwise!

I always have a very clear aim to create an atmosphere that will suck the audience in, whether that be hard-hitting or a soothing ambience. Over the various projects I have had exposure to various Magix programs, iMovie, and more recently, Final Cut. Below are a few examples of my work, which hopefully reflect my enthusiasm for filming!

Segment - Barbados Dive

A segment from a DVD I produced for a family holiday. This was filmed on my first few ever dives and was quite a steep learning curve!

Segment - Alps Mountain Biking

Another segment from a DVD, this time from one of my large projects. This showcases the epic Mountain Biking in the French Alps.

Trailer - Mountain Bike DVD

A DVD trailer. The whole project took one and a half years to complete.

Short Edit - Bike Event

A short edit from a local Mountain Biking event. I prefer to make these as you get the rewards for your work quicker than a full-scale project!
