FILM EDITING
Narrative Storytelling
Crafting engaging, seamless edits that enhance emotion, pacing, and structure, bringing depth and clarity to the narrative for maximum viewer impact. Using industry standard NLEs, I meticulously select, cut, and arrange footage, ensuring every frame serves the story. I also utilize compositing software for smooth transitions and to add subtle visual enhancements that complement the narrative.
Project Organization
From ingesting and organizing dailies, to sourcing temp music and sound effects. I streamline footage, timelines, and assets for efficient workflows, ensuring smooth collaboration, easy access to content, and maintaining project continuity throughout the editing process. I keep projects structured for quick retrieval and efficient editing, ultimately speeding up turnaround times, and keeping my editors happy.
Correction & Grading
Enhancing visuals with balanced tones, accurate color correction, and cinematic grading techniques to create a unified, professional, and visually appealing aesthetic. Whether I'm staying entirely within one editing platform or outsourcing the color process to a dedicated color suite, my understanding of color theory combined with my technical knowledge of various color spaces ensures an I deliver a pleasing a high fidelity image.
Sound Design & Mixing
Refining audio with clean dialogue, rich soundscapes, and precise mixing to ensure clear, immersive audio that supports the emotional tone of the piece. I work primarily in Adobe Audition and Premiere to clean dialogue, adjust levels, and layer sound effects, using meticulous mixing techniques to create professional-grade soundtracks that elevate the viewer's experience. While I can deliver a clean mix, I am also experienced in industry standard audio turnover techniques.
