Shannon McCarthy

Documentary, Drama and Commercial Editor

About Me…

Hi, I’m Shannon, an editor and filmmaker from County Cork with extensive experience in documentary, drama, and commercial editing and filmmaking. With a Master of Research in Artificial Intelligence and Film Editorial, I explore the intersection of technology and storytelling, pushing the technical and creative boundaries of cinematic post-production.

I’ve worked with companies such as NI Screen, Yellowmoon, VICO Films, Dramatic Forces, Red Wolf Films and more. My most recent films have included collaborations on films with filmmakers such as Dori Berinstein p.g.e, Alison Millar, and Mark Cousins.

My work has been recognised at various international festivals, reflecting my dedication to crafting compelling narratives that resonate with audiences. I’m passionate about storytelling in all its forms, I’m always excited to connect with new collaborators and bring fresh ideas to life.
