Alexander Longstaff

Based in Sydney, I'm a TV & film editor with a diverse range of over 50 broadcast credits globally. My work spans genres from lifestyle and ob-doc to sports, current affairs, drama, live events, and entertainment shows.

I've had the opportunity to contribute to significant projects, including the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and various Emmy Award-winning series. Editing live concerts for celebrated artists like Coldplay, UB40, Salman Khan and Norah Jones has been one of the many highlights of my career.

In collaboration with talented producers, I've been fortunate to play a part in commissioning new shows and have also contributed to BAFTA Award-winning series like 'Ron Iddles: The Good Cop' and ‘Go Back To Where You Came From’. My role in these projects has been both challenging and immensely rewarding.

My true passion is in shaping the early stages of post-production, particularly in crafting the narrative and visual feel of factual and documentary formats. I find joy in bringing stories to life through careful pacing, thoughtful storytelling, and music selection. These skills become especially vital in fast-paced, high-pressure environments.

Looking ahead, I'm excited about embracing new challenges and continuing to contribute to the creation of quality television and film. The journey so far has been incredible, and I'm eager to see what the future holds.
