Angus Paterson Copywriting

I'm a journalist, editor, content producer and copywriter with extensive experience across multiple mediums that includes print, mobile as well as more than a decade working in online media. My background is drawn equally from classically trained journalism and contemporary content production, and I bring these two crafts together in my work. My professional background includes an early several-year stint as a journalist and online editor at Blueline Media in Sydney, Australia, where I was trained and mentored by Patrick Howard, a publishing veteran with more than 30 years journalistic and editing experience. This imparted experience both within the traditional world of print journalism, and the burgeoning world of online publishing that remains in dynamic development to this day. Later I worked in editorial at Junkee Media in Sydney, Australia's largest independent media company. I worked in a senior editorial role for inthemix, which was Australia’s #1 music website with a monthly audience of over 500,000 unique visitors. Additionally, I produced and created content across the company's portfolio of youth-branded websites. This was followed by several years working in the role of Music Producer at Vodafone Australia, providing editorial duties and producing digital content for the music products of the Vodafone and 3 Mobile brands. This saw me working across mobile portals, online, catalogues, live appearances and traditional marketing, with a combined monthly audience of more than 7 million users. Since 2012 I have called Berlin my home, where I work as a freelance professional with a range of international clients, balancing a speciality in music journalism with a wider focus in helping businesses produce content and copy, and bringing their ideas to life.
