At Trailer Park, we work in a very fast paced environment with multiple projects daily. Finishes include broadcast commercials, DVD content, home entertainment, video on demand, television promos, branded content, and episodic productions. In addition to conform, my work includes color grading in Resolve and visual fx work using Autodesk Flame Assist.In addition to my extensive knowledge of the technical aspects of finishing, my work really shines in the creative aspects of my job. Creating the tone of scenes through color correction, fx, and relighting is essential as to not distract the audience from the story, and to bring to life the visual experience. Even more, I focus on the bigger picture of the finish to make sure the audience gets the optimal experience. ------Major Brand Campaigns include: Lays, Toshiba, Carvana, ScoreBig, Chrylser/Fiat, Intel Major promo campaigns include: YouTubeRed, HBO Now, Big Hero 6, Frozen, Monsters University, Girlfriends Guide to Divorce, The Expendables 3, The Voices, The Great Gatsby, 2 GunsClients include: Disney, Universal, Lionsgate, 20th Century Fox, New Line, Warner Bros, Bravo, MTV, Nickelodeon, TruTV, Feld Entertainment, MTV, FX, SYFY.

During my times with Leora films, I was the go to person for all post production needs. I set up, managed, and updated the post workflow, even as it changed throughout the years. I provided tech support for all staff, work and non-work related. I worked closely with owner Percy Adlon (director for Bagdad Café) to convert his films from 40 years to a digital format. From 2012-2014, I completed the preparation of multiple films to DCP format for a tribute for Percy Adlon. After films were converted to a digital format, I supervised subtitles creation, and then digitally restored them to prepare for DCP. In 2008, I created a 5 disc DVD set about artist Fritz Koenig. I prepared the films for mastering, I created new featurettes, created the DVD menus, designed the box cover art, and did the final DVD manufacturing. In 2006-2007, I was the editor for “Music Making with Esa Pekka Salonen,” a feature documentary about the making of the score for “Mahler auf der Couch.” I did the online, graphics design, and finishing of the documentary along with creating extra DVD content. Prior to that, I was the assistant editor for “Mahler auf der Couch.” Both pieces were in German language. During this time, I designed promotional postcards and posters for the feature film. In 2005-2006, I was the editor for "Orbela's People" - a feature documentary about a small village in Tanzania - directed by Percy Adlon. I worked closely with Percy to create a non tourist feeling of visiting remote villages in Tanzania. The documentary was edited in it's original Maasai dialog without translation. Towards the end of picture editing, we hired a Maasai translator to verify our edit. When he said our story made perfect sense, it showed me how much editing had to do with feeling and visuals, not just words.

MGM began the process of digitizing and sorting their master libraries for their flagship channel MGM HD. I worked an early morning swing shift to sort, organize, and digitize masters through Final Cut Pro. Once digitized, the media was backed up via LTO for safe keeping.

I was the lead editor for the World Championship Sports Network (now NBC Sports). I supervised 2 other editors as we cut down live events in almost real time for broadcast. All editors kept in constant communication to make sure events were edited for the right broadcast time.

I started as the night assistant editor for "For Better or For Worse", a one hour unscripted show for TLC. Within a half season I was promoted to lead assistant editor. My main duties were to organize media on the Unity, even as more footage was being shot. I also kept editors organized so they only focused on editing, not any technical details or searching aimlessly for footage. Through the trust of the editors, I began editing the credit sequence which featured the outtakes of the show.
