PHILIP KAPADIA
_____
I work across creative and technical roles in post-production, with core strengths in offline editing and post-production engineering, and additional experience in colour grading, mastering, digital intermediate, film restoration, and sound design. I bring a holistic understanding of the post-production pipeline, shaped by my experience as an engineer at Avid, where I have also earned multiple certifications, and as a freelancer across a wide range of creative projects, including music videos and feature documentaries.
Outside of post-production, I am an experienced Latin jazz percussionist with a deep-rooted background in music. I have performed at some of London’s most iconic venues, including Ronnie Scott’s, the Jazz Café, and Pizza Express Jazz Club Soho, as well as internationally with Grammy-winning musicians. This musical foundation profoundly influences my editorial approach, especially in how I use score and sound design to shape the emotional tone of a film.
Currently, I work at Avid, where I support enterprise newsroom and post-production teams by troubleshooting complex issues, specialising in Media Composer, while also providing technical support and integration expertise across Nexis, MediaCentral, and other Avid products. Alongside that, I freelance as a film editor and technical specialist, working on a range of projects from music videos to feature documentaries.
