Lisa Forrest
Lisa is a brilliant creative editor with a particular passion for factual projects. She relishes the challenge of making stories work in the edit, and is a committed yet easy-going presence, confident working both collaboratively and by herself.
Lisa is adept at quickly finding stories within large amounts of footage and is very much used to fast turnarounds. She is asked back regularly by leading production companies, including Shine TV, Storyvault Films, Wall to Wall and October Films. Lisa is based in London and her top notch remote setup allows her to work efficiently from the home studio.
