Earlier this year, Tom Lindsay took his editing suite to the next level - a hot tropical jungle in Thailand. This was where the legendary John Hillcoat was shooting his latest commercial for National Lottery. Featuring the endearing and talented Nicholas Amer, a true 88 year old veteran, the spot is an affecting piece that wouldn't look out of place in a feature. Brilliant cut and sound edit too from Tom.

Woop Woop, congratulations to director, WIZ and Trim's editor Julia Knight for winning this years NME Best Music Video award for Hurts 'Sunday'! Check it out:
Director Daniel Wolfe has once again delivered a visually stunning commercial, this time round for Cobra. It's filled to the brim with an eclectic mix of characters from hipsters to gurus, (all street cast of course), getting crunked up on a train journey. We think it's a beautifully crafted spot, effortlessly pieced together by Tom Lindsay. Plus it makes us thirsty and gives our shoulders a work out to the brilliantly original track, what more do you want?

1568 days, 409 quicktimes, 47 bottles of prosecco, 1367 biscuits, 18816 cups of coffee, 1 huge live event and Trim finally polished off its biggest project to date; the Coke Olympics campaign, directed by the gorgeous Kim Gehrig!
The mammoth campaign involving a 1 hour documentary, concert visual, 2 music videos, numerous commercials and endless music editing started in August 2011 and has involved everyone at Trim at one point or another, apart from Paul who managed to slip through the net.
For nearly a year Kim Gehrig has been non stop working, traveling around the world for 3 months with her dedicated crew, including the fantastic DP Ross Mclennan and her producer Lucy Kelly, filming an array of athletes whilst following Mark Ronson on his momentous steps to creating the 2012 Olympic 'Move to Beat' record. This then accumulated towards an impressive live event/mini festival next door to the Olympic Stadium bringing the entire project to life. All this before setting up home at Trim HQ, running around between suites, cutting the doc with Jerry Chater and Tom Hemmings then skipping over to Tom Lindsay who was in charge of the music video, commercials and music edit.
A 30 minute edit of the documentary was broadcast on Channel 4 on Wednesday 15 February and will be available for further viewing on 4OD later this spring. Be sure to check it out!
