IT’s ME - SEBBY T!
WORKING ACROSS A RANGE OF DISCIPLINES INCLUDING VIDEO EDITING, GRAPHIC DESIGN, ILLUSTRATION & MOTION GRAPHICS.
I PRODUCE DISTINCTIVE CREATIVE WORK FOR A VARIETY OF CLIENTS WITH A FOCUS ON NARRATIVE, QUALITY AND A SENSE OF FUN.
Initially working as an Assistant Editor at top commercial edit houses in London and San Francisco. I developed my video editing expertise while assisting on commercial projects for clients such as Samsung, Apple & Facebook. I took the strong technical skills and industry knowledge gained in that field into a bachelors degree at RMIT University in Melbourne, where I studied Visual Communication and graduated with Distinction.
Since then I have primarily worked as a freelance Video Editor for Never Too Small, an architectural YouTube channel with over 2.7 million subscribers - editing a number of their recent episodes, many of which have gained over 1 million views. I’ve worked with a range of commercial clients on Graphic Design, Illustration & Motion Graphics projects, as well as working with Never Too Small to edit brand integrations for commercial partners such as LG and Visit Victoria.
I love collaborating with clients to create refined, exceptional work across various disciplines to suit every creative project and I look forward to working with you.
