Hi, I’m Caz, a UK-based showreel editor working with actors, musicians, and creatives around the world.
Showreels
My journey into showreels started more than a decade ago when actress Nicole Faraday asked if I could create one for her. At the time, I honestly didn’t realise how much that one project would shape my future. Since then, I’ve continued updating Nicole’s reels throughout her career, and over the years we’ve built a lovely friendship through the work we’ve done together.
What I love about editing showreels is that every actor is completely different. Some performers have huge dramatic scenes, others have quieter moments that say everything with a look or a pause. I enjoy finding those moments and shaping them into something that feels natural and true to the person on screen. Even now, after all these years, I still genuinely get excited when someone sends over footage and trusts me to help shape such an important part of their career.
Storytelling has always been at the centre of what I do, whether I’m editing a showreel or building visuals around a song. Outside of editing, I’m heavily inspired by film, horror, music, and cinematic environments, and those influences naturally shape the atmosphere and emotion behind my work.
I’m passionate about film and TV, and there’s nothing quite like the thrill of working with actors I admire. My mission is simple: to help actors get seen for the roles they deserve, whether that’s a lead or a steady, recurring part in professional work.
Actors are often too close to their own footage to see what really stands out, and that happens to every creative, myself included. That’s where I come in. I watch everything, find the strongest moments, and if a scene needs tightening, I reshape it so it flows seamlessly. My job is to give actors the objective eye they can’t have on their own work, and turn their footage into a reel that actually gets them cast.
Lyric Videos & Music Visuals
My lyric video work began in 2015 with a friend’s band. What started as a passion project quickly became something much bigger.
Since then, I’ve created visuals for musicians and bands across multiple countries, building everything from clean minimal lyric videos to cinematic animated projects inspired by mythology, horror, fantasy, and dark storytelling.
One of my favourite parts of the process is hearing music before release and finding the visual language that best fits the atmosphere and emotion of the track.
Every project is different, and I love adapting my style to suit each artist’s identity.
Over the years, I’ve attended film and TV conventions and met many actors whose work inspired me creatively.
I’ve been called “Caz” since childhood, but one moment always stuck with me. Over 20 years ago, I met Nathan Fillion shortly after Firefly. When I asked him to personalise an autograph, he commented that “Caz” was a catchy name. It was a small moment, but one that stayed with me.
Years later, when I started building my creative business, I knew I wanted the name to feel personal while still sounding professional and cinematic, especially because actors and creatives were such a big part of the world I wanted to work in.
That’s how Caz Digital was born.
Since then, a few actors have actually commented on my name as well, which always makes me smile.
My creative journey hasn’t always been straightforward.
Since I was around 8 years old, I struggled with episodes of dizziness and coordination problems. Almost every day, I would feel light-headed and disconnected from my surroundings, sometimes struggling to properly control my hands and feet. Every few weeks, those symptoms would develop into severe dizziness episodes that could leave me sick and unable to function for an entire day.
Over the years, I went through countless doctor appointments, tests, and medical investigations trying to understand what was happening. For a long time, nobody seemed to have any real answers, and living with that uncertainty was incredibly exhausting both physically and emotionally.
It wasn’t until my early 20s that I finally began to understand how deeply anxiety was connected to what I had been experiencing all those years.
I’ve always written song lyrics as a way to express my feelings. As a teenager, I wrote a song called My Burden. It was about the dizziness I struggled with and the feeling of being trapped inside it.
Years later, while studying Digital Graphics at university, I decided to create a video for My Burden as my final degree project. Through the visuals, I tried to represent the fear, isolation, and emotional exhaustion I had experienced for so many years. Looking back now, I can see just how much of my own story found its way into both the lyrics and the video itself.
Even now, that project still represents an important chapter of my life. It reminds me how creativity can become both expression and escape during difficult periods.
Those experiences shaped who I am creatively and personally. They taught me empathy, emotional honesty, and the importance of creating work that genuinely connects with people.
One of the biggest influences on both my creativity and mental health has been horror.
That probably sounds strange to some people, but horror has always been oddly calming for me. While many people experience anxiety from horror films, I often experience the opposite. Horror gives me complete immersion – a temporary escape from overthinking and stress.
Over time, horror became more than just entertainment. It became inspiration.
I’ve attended horror conventions, met actors and filmmakers whose work I admire, and connected with a passionate community that genuinely feels welcoming and creative.
The atmosphere, tension, practical effects, sound design, cinematography, and emotional intensity of horror continue to influence the mood and storytelling style behind many of my visuals today.
One particularly meaningful experience was meeting Alyssa Sutherland after seeing Evil Dead Rise.
That film had a surprisingly emotional impact on me because, for a couple of hours, it completely pulled me out of my own anxiety and overthinking. When I met Alyssa, I told her how much the film had helped me mentally, and she responded with genuine kindness and empathy.
It was a small moment, but one I’ll never forget.
Experiences like that remind me how powerful storytelling can be, whether it’s through film, music, or visual art.
I’m constantly inspired by environments that feel cinematic and emotionally rich.
A recent trip to Toledo, Spain became one of those experiences that stayed with me long after I came home. The historic streets, bridges, architecture, and atmosphere felt like stepping into a film set.
Places like that remind me how much mood and environment shape emotion and storytelling.
Whether inspiration comes from travel, music, horror films, mythology, or old cities filled with history, those influences naturally find their way into my work and visual style.
Caz Digital continues to grow with every new project.
Today, I work with actors, musicians, and creatives worldwide, creating showreels, lyric videos, music visuals, and motion graphics designed to feel cinematic, emotionally connected, and authentic to the people behind them.
I’m incredibly grateful for everyone who has trusted me with their work so far, and I’m excited to continue building, evolving, and telling stories through visuals.
Thanks for taking the time to read my story.
