As curator of control room vibes and button pushing… I diligently study each project. Ideally, over multiple projects we would establish a shorthand and I would ultimately become an extension of your thought. I can offer a nuanced understanding of shot sequencing and bring my musically driven mind to the cut when applicable. I bring an unflappable focus and an editors perspective to each of my projects. I care about every cut and frame.
I’m that guy you want sitting next to you that ensures your creative ambitions are fulfilled technically. I will ensure all systems are faxed and details are precisely executed.
RECENT DIRECTORS INCLUDE: Paul Dugdale, Micah Bickham, James Merryman, Sam Wrench and more.
