I am an Offline Editor working in factual, documentary and fact ent. I come from both a scripted and non-scripted background, as well as being a Grierson DocLab Alumni, having taken part in their inaugural Editing scheme in 2021.
Whatever the genre or format is, I am first and foremost a story teller. I love seeking out new stories to tell, new challenges to take on and new people to work with.
Below is a selection of the programmes that I have worked on. But for a more detailed credit list, CV, and references, you can contact me at: hannahjayawardene@gmail.com.
