Post Production Services
In addition to being an editor, I have honed my skills in many aspects of post production. People get stuck in many technical areas and major post production houses confuse them and charge high rates for impersonal services. I treat every job that I do like my own and pay attention to make sure it’s what you want. I prefer not to charge by the hour because I am here to get the job done, not milk the hours for profit.
Post Production Management
With my full range of experience in post production, I am often brought on to projects or companies as a post production manager. I oversee a company’s post production, which includes video and sound editing, color correction, and mastering. More advanced work includes network setup, media management, online management, archival and library management, upgrading and setup of equipment. I organize the entire post production process so the company is setup for a long time.
DVD Mastering and Duplications
When I worked as an editor, I saw a need from clients for DVD copies of their work. So I began DVD Duplications. There are several processes in making the DVD, from encoding, DVD menus, DVD cover and disc design, and then of course duplications. I work with you to create the right look for your DVD and I achieve a high quality look. I work with NTSC and PAL, and I can even extract your DVD to make it into an editable file. Even if you just want screener DVD’s, I can help you make you DVD simple and effective.
Technical Support Packages

These include phone support, in office support, software updates, basic editing, exports, show preparation, computer setup, website management, and many other technical services. Plans are based on an average amount of hours per month and can be customizable. Some plans are specific towards online media management, computer setup, or phone support.
Digital Archive
These days, you need media ready for the internet and email. The digital archive does that. I take your media and convert into several formats for email and online use. They vary in size and format so you can have the option of which file to use at any time.
Reel Editing
Having a reel is vital for any filmmaker. I edit reels for actors, DP’s, and even editors. For a flat fee, I convert all of your footage into an editable format, and then we select the best material. I work with you to create graphics and select music that fits your style. I can even re-edit scenes they way you want. I also give you a test DVD so you can show it to a few people to get feedback. Once we’re done, I will give you a few DVD copies along with an internet ready version of the reel. I can even assist you on setting up a basic website or posting it online. If you think you want to update your reel, then I can store your media or organize it for you on a hard drive for future use. Besides my reels, click here to check out these reels I’ve edited.
