As a Senior Technical Manager at the Walt Disney Studios, I found solutions to the challenges that D-Cinema, Blu-ray, files for distribution can create to insure we met our clients needs on time. Over the past years at Disney I have forged partnerships both inside and outside the company to create file based delivery needs for Airline, Pay-TV, Dom & Int’l TV and Home Entertainment. I balance a strong business, feature film & video acumen and service as follows: CORE SKILLS -Leadership: In my managerial roles I have set clear vision and business goals and I am accountable for the performance of my team. I have worked to create a collaborative atmosphere and supported the team to increase productivity and help employees feel motivated. Communication: I maintain good avenues of communication between post vendors and my clients in order to guarantee deadlines are met and I have presented to large internal and external groupsTechnical: Hands on Quality Control for new emerging file technologies such as 2D & 3D D-Cinema DCPs, BluRay encodes, Distribution Clipster / ProRes files, 7.1 Near Field mixes, etc.Future: I am always studying the future of Post Production workflows to see how it can be improved. This requires me to constantly question the status quo and act as a disruptor within my own sphere and the wider business.
