15+ Years Turning Raw Footage Into Polished Content That Works.
About me
I'm Ash Lawson, a UK-born, internationally-based video editor and motion designer who's been cutting footage since I was a teenager with a skateboard and a camera. What started as filming tricks with friends in Ireland turned into a 15+ year career spanning the US, Europe, and remote work with clients worldwide.
From long-form podcasts and social content to branded motion graphics and custom workflow automation, I bring both technical precision and deep client integration to every project. I don't just deliver files, I become part of your production engine, understanding your brand, your audience, and your goals well enough to execute without constant oversight.
My Journey
I started editing as a teenager in Ireland, filming skateboard videos with friends. What began as a hobby turned into film school at St. Johns College Cork, where post-production clicked immediately. Learning Final Cut, Motion, and After Effects felt natural.
Since graduating in 2008, I've worked across three continents: years in the United States and Bulgaria, plus ongoing remote collaborations with clients worldwide. I'm drawn to solving technical challenges, building reusable systems (like custom Apple Motion templates), and exploring emerging tech. Whether embedded long-term with a client or tackling a specific project, I adapt quickly and deliver consistently.
