About me
Since 2008 I have worked as a teacher of adults in a variety of community education settings where I have provided learning opportunities to small groups of ‘hard to reach’ learners on accredited courses. I also run workshops and deliver one on one coaching and successful film making activities winning awards and recognition for myself and my students in national competitions.I am experienced in creating/devising and managing learning opportunities based around creative activities and have excellent communication skills and a natural ability to motivate people to want to do things rather than to force them.
I have a thorough understanding of the filmmaking process through all stages of production, including scripting and rehearsing actors through to working with writers, sound designers and musicians I have a good mix of creative and practical skills.
I am able to lead, co-ordinate and inspire teams. I have a flair at working within a limited budget and to tight deadlines and come with script writing scheduling/planning and strong editing skills including an understanding of digital compression and delivery formats.
Possessed of a broad skill set I can see projects through from conception to completion and I absolutely thrive on and rise to a challenge in the work environment.
I am affable creative and totally calm under even extreme pressure and am blessed with a great sense of humour and an occasionally charismatic personality :)
Currently freelancing as an editor and video content producer/self shooter with some teaching and volunteering interspersed while I pursue suitable opportunities.
All the best
Peter
Referees:
Peter is a energetic, positive and skilled director/editor, good at working with others and pulling people together to get the best result. He first became involved with our work in 2014 and has now produced two short films for our small charity which we love! The task was not an easy one, covering an event with thousands of people attending, mainly outdoors and with other volunteers involved in the filming but he was an excellent self starter and really helped pull it all together. He very kindly edited the film both years as well, always gearing the finished product to our vision and happy to make tweaks to suit particular needs.
He is a pleasure to work with and I would easily recommend him.

Peter put together some great videos for us featuring Ken Loach. Fab music, great attention to detail and boundless patience with our many edits (all of them our fault!). He's very personable, well connected and a pleasure to work with.
Bree Sims Communications Consultant Poplar Film January 20, 2015,
Peter has been a quick, reliable, self-sufficient and talented editor in my dealings with him. He edited a number of scenes at short notice to a tight deadline and delivered them in several different formats and export versions. Throughout he was cheerful and friendly and I would have no hesitation recommending him.
'The initial material Peter offered us for a first edit was great. He had a good sense of what we were after and was able to offer us ideas we hadn't thought of. The real joy with such a great edit for us was then being able to really fine tune the details to then offer our client a video that far exceeded their expectations.
A great collaboration Peter, thank you.

Peter edited my 'Result' drama film with me and was a pleasure to work alongside. Always in good humour and friendly, he has cutting edge technical skills at editing and a finely tuned creative mind, ready to offer artistic suggestions for improving the film. I would recommend Peter Dexter to anybody needing to make a film.
