ORIGINAL SIN CRIME
Evidence-led. Procedure-first.
No speculation. Built for retention.
METHOD NOTE
Evidence-led storytelling. Public court proceedings only. Tension built from what can actually be proved.
THE PROBLEM
Most channels don't have a research problem.
They have a structure problem. Great material collapses on screen when the mechanics fail.
— Answers arrive too early — jeopardy flatlines
— Context floods the opening — viewers leave
— Reveals land without preparation — payoffs feel cheap
— The edit explains instead of unfolding
THE FIX
A strong documentary spine.
It controls when the viewer learns something, how uncertainty is sustained, and why the payoff feels earned. My work focuses on the retention mechanics — hook design, escalation, jeopardy management, curiosity loops — then expresses it cleanly through script and edit.
EXPERTISE
SERVICES
Documentary Script Build
You bring the case. I build the full script: cold open, structural spine, escalation, jeopardy management, reveal sequencing, earned payoff.
01 —
Script Surgery
You have a draft. I restructure it: re-hook the open, manage the reveals, fix mid-film jeopardy collapse, and make the payoff land.

Anatomy Edit Pass
You have a rough cut. I rebuild the edit map, compress, re-hook, and deliver full notes + timestamps + optional Loom walkthrough.

PERSONAL PROJECT • COMMUNITY ARCHIVE •. ORAL HISTORY
LIGHT
KEEP
A portrait and oral-history project built on a single idea: when you strip everything back, the truth becomes unmistakable. One person. One lens. One honest frame.
Now evolving into a community-rooted archive — capturing the lives and memories of older residents in Rottingdean and nearby villages.
