Tor Burrows

I am an experienced Videographer of over 12 years, with experience working both in-house and on a self-employed basis. In my spare time I also work as an online Nutrition Coach, helping people develop healthier eating habits.

Because of my experience in building up my own small businesses, I understand the importance of effective marketing strategies. I actively developed my skills in branding, social media, copywriting, sales and online ad campaigns, which gave me a thorough understanding of the sales pipeline and customer journey.

I’m very passionate about fitness and nutrition, and over the years I gradually became more specialised in this niche. I’m proud to have worked with a number of large health and fitness brands including Speedo, Adventure Yogi and Thriva, and also worked closely with a startup CrossFit gym to help turn it into one of the most successful gyms in the country.

I also gained invaluable experience here working as the gym’s Marketing Manager, which helped me further develop my skills in sales and social media management.

I enjoy working with people and capturing inspiring stories, and have solid experience in all aspects of video production, including scripting, filming, lighting, directing, interviewing, voice over, motion graphics, and grading.
