BIOGRAPHY

Rob began his film career with a brief course at Sydney’s Australian Film,

Television and Radio School in 2001. Returning to England, he swiftly enrolled

in a one-year film-making diploma at the London Film Academy and flourished

in the intensive, creative atmosphere. Learning on Steenbeck and synchroniser,

it was here that he came to focus on editing as his career choice. He cut two

of the course’s Super 16 films and directed one other.

Moving into the digital world using Final Cut Pro and Avid, Rob met editor Eddie Hamilton and,

as his First Assistant Editor, worked on four feature films (including the U.S. #1 hit

‘Resident Evil: Apocalypse’), becoming highly skilled in all stages of the post-production

process. He also worked as First Assistant Editor on one further feature (’Grow Your Own’)

with Oscar-nominated editor Joe Walker.

Having edited short films, promos and music videos, Rob cut his first 35mm feature ‘Shirgo’ in

2006, followed by the high-profile feature ‘The Tournament’, an explosive action film starring

Robert Carlyle, Ving Rhames and Kelly Hu, theatrically released in 2010. Recent highlights

include ‘Red White & Blue’, an award-winning revenge thriller shot in 2009 in Austin, Texas;

‘Devil’s Playground’, an action-horror film starring Craig Fairbrass and Danny Dyer and winner

of Best Film at the British Horror Awards 2010; supernatural chiller ‘When the Lights Went Out’,

premiering at the Rotterdam International Film Festival in 2012, and ‘The Penguin King 3D’,

narrated by Sir David Attenborough.

In 2012 Rob stepped into television drama with ‘The Bible’ (History Channel) later followed by

‘A.D. The Bible Continues’ (NBC), produced by Mark Burnett, Roma Downey and Richard Bedser.

The Bible ranked as the #1 cable television show of 2013 and the #1 selling TV miniseries of

all time. It is estimated to have been seen by over 100 million viewers. Rob also cut the

off-shoot feature film ‘Son of God’, hitting #2 at the U.S. box office and taking $60 million in

it’s opening week. During this period he also cut the supernatural chiller ‘Johnny Frank Garrett’s

Last Word’ in New Orleans, premiering at SXSW 2016, his fourth collaboration with director

Simon Rumley.

Rob’s most recent projects are the feature documentary ‘Bobby’, receiving glowing reviews

and premiering at Wembley Stadium in 2016; the action film ‘Final Score’, starring Dave Bautista

and Pierce Brosnan, and released in theatres in September 2018 and the BBC’s ‘The ABC Murders’,

starring John Malkovich and Rupert Grint and premiering on BBC1 on Boxing Day 2018.
