These ‘Wonder Rooms’ represent a singular passion for shipwrecks and collecting, reminding us that Plymouth and the South West of the UK is a vast archaeological site, with material evidence that links our locality irrefutably, to the rest of the world.” Mohini Chandra

“From the very get go Beccy was invaluable to the edit process - often working remotely to handwritten edit notes !
When the schedule allowed us to be in the same room together it was wonderful to work with someone so intuitive to the pace, look, sound and structure that I had in my head. At times I didn't even have to explain what I wanted to achieve and if it was impossible, Beccy was creative in finding an alternative or solution.
Gateways Grind has been very well received by festivals, distributors and broadcasters and I cannot underestimate the role of the editor/editing in this reception.
I would happily recommend her for any project. “

Editor Cliff Tops Sessions a feature length music documentary
THE CLIFFTOP SESSIONS is a collection of intimately shot, closed-door, late-night jams that have blues, folk & hip-hop heavy-weights and rookies meet at a secret, Cornish cottage-on-a-cliff-top, with grand piano and a roaring fire. With an invitation to ‘come-as-you-are’, THE CLIFFTOP SESSIONS is where musicians can leave it all behind – lose the crowds for the night, ditch the agent, bring sleeping bags and guitars, be prepared to pick up a dish cloth – And let the song and chat flow freely as stormy Cornish winds blow.
