Brief History

Mobile Video Editing has been formed in April 2000 by Jonathan Griffiths, who for the previous 10 years was a senior editor and a major shareholder at Headline Video Facilities, Readings premiere facilities company. Headline offered two on-line tape suites and two off-line suites including one of the first non-linear Avid media composer suite. With the ever changing market and the fact that our lease was about to expire we felt that the future for Headline was a little to uncertain to continue and so it was decided to call it a day and all go our own ways. We had a large client base from many different market sectors including broadcast, motor industry, pharmaceuticals, and sell through video and many more. I worked closely with a number of clients as their preferred editor having formed a good working and personal relationship with many of them.

Prior to that I joined The Arts Channel in September 1985, first as a technical trainee in editing, camera work and sound recording and from April 1986 as staff editor. My position as staff editor involved being responsible for all on-line and off-line editing together with the associated engineering alignments and a large proportion of the sound mixing. Some examples of the type of productions were drama, classical and jazz concerts, documentaries, commercials plus the occasional industrial video.

Since forming Mobile Video Editing I have worked on a wide verity of programmes as the following examples will show:
