About me

A quote I've come to live by is one by Director Joe Dante, "Editing is where movies are made or broken. Many a film has been saved and many a film has been ruined in the editing room." Editing a film fundamentally absurd at times, but find it to be like my home; There are hardship and hurdles to face with every new project that comes through the door, but that is a learning experience that can use down the road to make myself an even better editor than the day before. Editing is where feel relaxed and content knowing that am nurturing a work of art into its final form. find a distinct fascination on how the mind works when watching a film, how time seemingly slips away or ostensibly grows longer, howa viewer's eyes dart across the screen to focus on certain aspects of the frame, how the puzzle of a film can be cleverly put together to keep a viewer's mind racing for what might be coming next. The study of how people react to things, and what they notice versus what the "formulaic" approach tells us one should notice is sometimes so vastly different that it adds an uncommon insight on what makes a movie interesting to the individual.
