Two decades as a senior editor at Fox Entertainment — Empire, American Idol, The Simpsons, Hell's Kitchen. The same broadcast instincts, now on your promos, trailers, and social cutdowns.
Your long-form content is full of Shorts nobody is posting. I find them and cut them — captioned, vertical, ready to publish.
The thing network TV taught me best: make someone need to see what happens next, in thirty seconds flat.
Buried in footage with a deadline moving the wrong way? I slot into your pipeline and cut — rough cuts to picture lock.
Send one episode of anything. I'll cut three clips from it — captioned, vertical, ready to post — so you can see the work before committing to more.
Network television doesn't wait. The air date is the air date, the act break lands where it lands, and the audience decides in seconds whether they stay. Cutting under those rules for two decades builds a specific instinct — where the moment is, and how fast to get there.
I've cut competition shows, animation, drama, and sports promos across Fox's networks. That range is the point: your project doesn't need an editor who does one thing — it needs one who recognizes what kind of thing yours is and cuts it that way.
Every job gets senior-editor attention, two included revision rounds, and honest turnaround estimates. B.A. Communications, Flagler College.
AutoFinish is my AI post-production pipeline — automated color, loudness, and dual-format delivery, built from the same broadcast standards I cut to. If your volume outgrows human hours, that's the other thing I do.
One email with what you've got and when you need it. I'll reply with an honest read on scope, timeline, and price — usually same day.
