about

Andy Prada - a creative and intuitive designer/editor working for production companies, facilities, broadcasters, agencies and client organisations - with or without his own equipment. He specialises in Adobe Premiere, After Effects, Photoshop and Audition software.

Freelance, he can design/edit your programme - even direct it! - and co-ordinate the complete post production process - from rough cut to finished master - liasing with animators, archivists, composers, VO artists and external facilities.

He can also prepare your media for any delivery platform you can think of, whether it be Internet, intranet, SSD, tape or optical media.

Combining his skills as a designer/editor (Pradamedia) with a keen

interest in military history (Fougassefilms), Andy has specialised in a range of programming for government, broadcasters, production companies and business. Legacy credits include the seminal Realities of War for the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst and An Invisible Wound - for the Royal Army Medical Corps - which scooped the premier award at ETMA together with a nomination for best documentary at IVCA. The Captain's Bad Day collected similar awards for the Royal Navy. More recent defence work includes Tea & Medals - an ongoing series of webinars featuring recipients of all current British gallantry awards, together with informational films about postings in Cyprus and Gibraltar.

He has written and edited webinars for The European Space Agency (ESA), in particular the ENVISAT & Mars Express missions. He has also post-produced award winning work for the maritime industry - Piracy & Armed Robbery and Coping with Stowaways, to name but a few.

On a gentler note he has been involved with several programmes for Benenden Healthcare and Guy's & St Thomas' Hospital Trust and edited and multimedia authored the Civil Partnership initiative for the DWP. He is currently producing communications modules for the University of Sussex (SHORE-C) involving research and education in cancer care.

In 2018 Andy designed and organised LoosBigWalk2018, a bilingual public event, in France, put together for The Durand Group to commemorate and celebrate the role of engineering during the First World War. His feature length Blu-ray and DVD film: The Battle of Loos - Fighting for the French Coalfields was published shortly after.
