    My name is Ian Roberts, I'm a video editor and teacher from England. I've been doing this video editing stuff for about 2 years now and have made a couple of ok videos, most people seem to like this one:

    Shameless Rock Video

    Hopefully most of my videos should be attainable via local downloads - if not there may be some external mirrors although I can rarely afford hosting.

    I enjoy reading opinions, although I don't get time to reply to them all - they are all greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for visiting!
