The Day That Changed My Life was edited at the Bigger Picture by Simon Coldrick.
Simon Coldrick has a keen eye for story and drama, and what it means to be human. He thinks as much about sound as he does picture when piecing material together ... A great collaborator, thoroughly dedicated to his craft.

For the Bigger Picture working on The day that Changed My Life was a rare opportunity. For an editor this was a challenging and affecting experience, those stories will stay with me forever. It was a privilege working with a committed team that went beyond the call of duty to make the best possible documentary.
