RECENT PROJECTS
I worked as an assistant editor on "Ren Faire," Lance Oppenheimer's three-part series from Elara Pictures and HBO for a year and a half beginning in 2023. I worked on Premiere Pro Productions handling over 100 days of footage. I created proxies, ingested footage, created cutdowns, and mostly importantly kept everything organized before onlining for color and sound. It was a fascinating process that taught me so much about editing, storytelling, and, of course, renaissance faires.
At the end of 2024 I wrapped up a dream project: editing and animating a short video about the graphic designer Giorgia Lupi for The Museum of Modern Art.
MoMA: How Giorgia Lupi visualizes life through data
I edited and animated this short video about the fantastic graphic designer Giorgia Lupi for the Museum of Modern Art. I worked in Adobe Premiere Pro 2024 along with Adobe Photoshop and Adobe After Effects.
