===================================================
:::CURRENTLY:::
RANDOM ENCOUNTERS /feature film • Assistant Editor

Directed by the wonderful Boris Undorf, Random Encounters is a dual-perspective he-said she-said romantic comedy about two 20-somethings' chance meeting at an LA coffee shop, taking us on a roller coaster ride as they attempt to find one-another and true love.

The film is shot on Panavisions' Genesis and we are cutting on Final Cut Pro.

:::WRAPPED:::
CLOSURE /feature film • Associate Editor

As part of the 30 Day Feature Film Challenge (.com), "Closure" was
written, crewed up and shot within 30 Days. I wore many hats for the project: in charge of implementing the RED camera workflow, shooting & editing for the web campaign during production, and now we are simultaneously cutting the behind the scenes feature length documentary, as well as the feature film with Final Cut Pro. The project got so much attention that RED donated cameras & equipment, G-Tech donated storage and we have full post production support at Plaster City in Hollywood.

And.... we are headed to Sundance! This is truly independent film at its best.

:::WRAPPED:::
FEED THE FISH /feature film • Associate Editor

I had a blast as associate editor on Michael Matzdorff's independent feature film called "Feed The Fish" alongside the brilliant editor: Ross Albert. The film stars Tony Shalhoub, Barry Corben, Katy Duplass and Ross Partridge. For more info visit: feedthefishmovie.com

We worked with the REDcam tapeless workflow cutting on Final Cut Pro.

:::WRAPPED:::
ELEKTRA LUXX /feature film • Assistant Editor

The film is a sequel to "Women In Trouble", both written and directed by Sebastian Gutierrez. The film stars Carla Gugino, Timothy Olyphant, Alicia Silverstone and Joseph Gordon Levitt.

We worked with the XDCAM tapeless workflow cutting on Final Cut Pro; "Elektra Luxx" is an official selection of 2010's SXSW and will screen at its opening night gala!
