Leading compositing teams since 2017’s Death Note, I have feature production VFX experience since 2005 with broadcast and feature editing experience in both narrative and documentary since 2003. If only Zerply had a job category for “post production strong man in a sensible shirt.”
I'm a fast paced Nuke/Flame artist with a winning attitude. I enjoy meeting new challenges, learning new software & techniques, and finishing hot projects with great folks.
My feature screenplay Bayou City Gentlemen’s Club was a quarter finalist in Final Draft’s Big Break Contest 2022 and the 2023 ScreenCraft Screenwriting Fellowship.
I directed, shot, and edited the definitive feature documentary about competitive improvised comedy called The Laughing Matter. It also may be the only feature documentary about competitive improvised comedy? Released by Film Buff March 2014.
