About

I'm Cassandra Roberts — a Film Editor and Story Consultant based in London, working wherever the work takes me. Lately that's been Kenya, Fiji and New Zealand. Before London, it was Sydney and New York.

 I work across film and TV — documentary, factual entertainment, reality, news, current affairs, comedy, lifestyle, children's TV, music videos. If it tells a story, I'm interested. My work has screened on the BBC, Netflix, Apple TV+, Disney+, Hulu, National Geographic, PBS, Discovery, Channel 5, MTV, Nickelodeon and Vice, as well as Australian networks ABC, SBS, Seven, Nine and Ten. I've also cut branded content for Red Bull, Harley-Davidson, Durex, Cadbury's and many more.

 On the feature documentary side, most recently I edited, co-wrote and co-produced Rhino (nominated Best Editing at the 2025 Wildscreen Panda Awards, UK theatrical run). I story consulted on The Pick Up Game (premiered at Hot Docs and DOCNYC 2019, won Best Director at Melbourne Documentary Film Festival), edited and co-wrote March for Dignity (30+ festivals, European cinema run) and edited/story consulted on India's 1st, Best, Trans Modelling Agency (premiered at BFI Flare 2024).

Every project teaches me something new — that's genuinely why I keep doing this. A curious mind needs feeding, and film does that better than anything. Across twenty-odd years and every genre going, I've developed a confident sense of narrative, emotion and rhythm. I can help you shape a story that lands — something that moves people and keeps them watching, whatever the subject.

 I'm a member of the British Film Editors (BFE) and BAFTA. I am one of the 2026 TV Festival Visionaries and the founder of StitchNBitch Editors — a collective of over 400 women and gender-diverse film and TV editors who host meetups, panels and events at industry festivals throughout the year.

 When I'm not in an edit suite or buried in a script, I'm cycling round the neighbourhood, eating dumplings, or disappearing somewhere new. If you want to work together, talk story, or just say hello — drop me a message.
