Consulting/Additional Editing
“Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.” -Edgar Degas
Viewing and working with rough and fine cuts as a consultant, story editor or additional editor is one of the most interesting and satisfying parts of my career. Often, a film needs an objective eye after an a assembly or rough cut to reach it's full potential.
