EDITING (Non-Linear)
I get huge kicks out of non-linear editing. And with great equipment, the limits are only in one's imagination. THAT's what editing should be all about. Story telling through imagination and vision.
Some of the systems I have worked with include Avid Media Composer 9000 (v 11.8), Speed Razor 2000 X and v. 4.7, Avid NewsCutter and Avid DS as well as a slew of non-pro NLEs. More...
WRITING
I have written for television and radio
as well as for newspaper and magazine.
For Television,
video by itself does not work. If the script isn't there - only half
the message will be delivered. For TV, I have written intros/outros, bumps,
teases, promos and feature scripts.
The best moments are when a punchy script is
enhanced by creative visuals!

SHOOTING
I have shot feature, sports, news,
corporate, video depositions as well as for training videos. I have shot and
lit for in-studio and in-the-field settings and also for green screen.
Having shot in
all types of settings and been on all sides of the of production gives me an
advantage both when producing and editing.
If you know what it
takes and are familiar with your tools, you will deliver a better
product.
