Turner Upfront 2011
For this year's TBS/TNT Upfront, the stage of New York's Hammerstein Ballroom was painted with over 14 million pixels of graphics and animations. Working with Turner Studios and Artifact Design, I headed up the team, helping create what may have been the biggest Upfront yet.

Tripping Round the World
I just got back from a 3 week trip to India, Uganda, and South Africa, working on an AIDS documentary. I'm the editor on the project, which traces the snowballing pandemic in the developing world. The
non-profit IAVI is culling talent and resourses to find the cure.
Check out my photos from the trip:

Turner Upfront 2009
It was another 3 months in a dark room, but this time in beautiful Atlanta, Georgia, working at
North Avenue Post on the Turner Upfronts. We produced 16 spots for all the new and upcoming shows on TNT & TBS. Working with Troika Design Group, I created the giant on-set graphics displayed on LCD screens that made up the set.

Whole Lot of New
So I finished USC and moved out to New York to work on my first feature-length documentary project
After the Storm.
I'm the associate editor/graphic designer on the project, working with director Hilla Medalia (
To Die in Jerusalem) and editor Bob Eisenhardt (
Shut Up & Sing).
After the Storm follows a group of New York theater professionals as they attempt to put on a musical in storm-ravaged New Orleans with 13 kids from the community.

Making Movie History
Two summers ago I spent a month out in the Mojave Desert associate-editing my first feature film gig. This week Entertainment Weekly released a
5-page
article detailing the phenomenon of
Zyzzyx Road, the lowest grossing movie of all time. The film, starring Katherine Heigl and Tom Sizemore brought in a total of $30 dollars at the box office. What's a better way to start a filmmaking career than in the Guinness Book of World Records?
