As part of a university project, I was provided with footage from films nominated for the Academy Awards and tasked with creating an RTÉ-style promotional edit for the Oscars broadcast.

The aim was to transform footage from multiple films into one cohesive, energetic promo. The edit was built around the music, using rhythm, pacing and carefully selected cuts to create momentum while bringing different films together within a consistent promotional narrative.

My Role

I was responsible for the full editing process, from selecting and organising the footage to choosing the music and constructing the final sequence. I selected the soundtrack independently and edited the footage around its rhythm, using beat-driven cuts, pacing and transitions to create a dynamic final piece.

I also worked on colour correction, timing and the overall visual flow of the edit, using Adobe After Effects and Adobe Premiere Pro to develop and refine the final promotional video.
