Professional Editor. Amateur Photographer and Pianist.
Filmography
I started editing professionally while still in college, and since then have cut two feature films, DVD special features, and worked as an assistant editor and vfx editor.
I speak fluent Spanish, and am a member of the Motion Picture Editors Guild.
After finishing Hellboy 2, I decided to create a little knowledgebase website for Editors and Assistant Editors. Click the link above to check it out and explore the content I've prepared. The idea behind the site is that there was very little discussion of day-to-day issues involving workflow, so I wanted to tackle the subject of making easier and quicker the very complex process of handling Post for a film. It's probably a bit dry for non-editors, but there are useful general computing things sandwiched in there, too. Take a peek!
Photo Site
Starting with my trip to Cyprus in 2003, I've been keeping an online photo gallery of my travels and activities.
After I finished working in London on Hellboy 2 in June 2007, my girlfriend Francine and I decided to take a two-month trip around the world to get back to LA. We stopped in Egypt,
Jordan, Turkey, Thailand, Japan and Maui before returning to LA. A few months later, in October, Francine and I went back to London to use up the last leg of our ticket.
Using MIT's Exhibit project, and Google Maps, I've plotted our trip on a timeline/map combo and linked each destination
to my photos and Francine's blog posts, which she wrote while we were traveling. Launch the timeline to explore the countries we visited...
Piano
Piano has been a hobby of mine since the age of 3. Although I no longer have the time for lessons, I still play and try to teach myself new pieces.
The three songs below were recorded during a practice session in my piano class at USC, so there may be a flub or two in there somewhere :)
Reverie by Debussy:
Sonata in Fm, Opus 10 #2, Movement 1 by Beethoven:
