Conall O'Brien
Edit Assistant
I am a freelance visual researcher / treatment designer who started in the industry as part of the creative team at Rattling Stick. Since going freelance in 2019, I have worked with some of the leading production companies such as Smuggler, Somesuch, Blink and many more. Outside of commercials I have worked across Film & TV on long form documentary & drama pitches for clients such as Netflix & BBC. I also specialise in copywriting, having written award winning copy for directors such as Sye Allen, Alicia MacDonald & Andy McLeod.
