About me
Hello! My name is Jack. I am an editor, writer, and director based in Los Angeles. I grew up in Atlanta, and went to college in Chicago, where I got my start in video production. Then, I wrote, directed, and edited an HBO comedy mini-series called Single Long, which brought me to LA.With over ten years of experience as an editor, writer, and director, I bring a unique creative approach to any project I’m on, and a deep technical knowledge of visual storytelling across media.
I’m always looking for the chance to work on collaborative teams. My primary work is as an editor — where I enjoy working closely with directors, producers, and writers to achieve their creative vision, to break story beats in post, to problem solve and brainstorm, and when necessary to re-structure and re-conceive projects to achieve the director’s or client’s vision. As an editor, I strive to be of service to a director’s vision, while also being proactive in seeking out honest, unexpected ways to tell a story.
I have been the lead editor on narrative features, narrative shorts, national ad campaigns, digital branded content campaigns, marketing videos, episodic content, educational and instructional media, documentaries, trailers, and more.
My work has premiered at SXSW, New York Television Festival, SeriesFest, Cinequest, Atlanta Film Festival, Portland Film Festival, San Diego International Film Festival, Edmonton International Film Festival, and more.
My debut feature film, Big House, was released by Gravitas Ventures in August 2021. It won Best Narrative Feature at Flickers’ Rhode Island International Film Festival (2020), and North Hollywood Cinefest (2020), where I was also nominated for Best Director.
A partial list of clients and production companies I have edited for includes: HBO, College Humor, Big Breakfast, 37 Laines, Queen’s Gambit Films, Little Bull Productions, Upper Diamond, Anova Culinary, Ugly Stick (Pure Fishing), RCA Records, Mishkan Chicago, Bonzie, Angel Olsen, Show&Tell Films, Color Me Mine, and The University of Chicago.
