That's who came to my mind first too.

He's well out of your age limit, but how about Mark Strong?

Edit - Craig Kelly - he's more in the age range you stated. I believe he was also in Corrie.

Richard Armitage from Spooks.

Frank Harper. Bit old now though.

Michael Fassbender. Could be up for it having just done a British indie recently.

Scam: thanks for the offer; very kind. I'm pretty sure an editor is on the project already but I'll let the director know about you. No idea what cameras they're using.

I'm no editor, I mean I could get it graded in a proper grading suite and give it a real professional look for you.

Offer still stands, good luck with it!

What about Dexter Fletcher?

Or Nicholas Aaron? I am just looking through Band of Brothers cast list.

What are you shooting on?

Spoke to people today, we have an editor already, sorry mate

The camera is a Sony F800 with a Pro 35 adaptor, whatever the Hell all that means!

Ah right. I think you're confused. Grading is not editing! Ask your editor if he's grading it as well - there's a certain amount of stuff he can do I'm sure.

These are the Colourists I work with day in day out; I have access to the kit and their help

Yeah, I'm not knowledgeable about this side of things at all! I've heard people talking about our editor and grading in the same breath so I assume he's going to do it. I'll mention you though and get back to you if they want you
