About me
My name is Chris Peirse, I graduated a year ago from Manchester Metropolitan University with a 2:1 in BSc (Hons) Media Technology and I am keen to be involved in postproduction in film.
Following on from completing my degree and project experience I keen to develop my skills further in software in areas such as, after- effects and Apple Motion. This will allow me to build on my current software experience, such as Final cut pro and Premier pro CS4.
