History

Flock Edit was established in 2017. [1] [2]

Four of London's top young film editors teamed together to create a new out-of-house editing company. This unique new concept allows the film producers to edit their production in any location they want, without having to relocate to in-house edit facilities, potentially saving time and money, whilst keeping the creative process fluid. [3] As well as servicing the advertising industry Flock has also served the film industry. Recent films employing Flock and their techniques include Dunkirk, Edie, and My Pure Land. [4]

The company began sourcing new talent and has grown exponentially, its editors winning numerous awards and nominations across the media industry. One of its films being selected as the British entry for Best Foreign Language Film at the 90th Academy awards. [5]

The company also services the charity, music and advertising industries. Notably brands such as Apple, BMW, Vodafone, Unilever, Spotify and Age UK. [6]
