Worked within a team of compositors to construct final scenes by combining layers of previously-created material.

Titmouse, Lead Editor for Animation, New York, NY |
Mar 2017 - Apr 2018 |
Managed a team of editors to produce animated content for theaters, TV, and Web. As an animation editor I was tasked with establishing the story in conjunction with the director from the very beginning. Taking the storyboard panels themselves and editing them together to make a moving and flowing story that the animators can then animate to. My edit team was the first ones on and last ones out on our productions, making sure that all storyboards, animations, and composting exports conformed and flowed with the story that we had established originally before making final delivery exports for the appropriate production companies.
Within a year I produced a feature short for Hanazuki Full of Treasures (Hasbro) that played in front of the My Little Pony Movie as well as the second season for the same show for their Youtube presence. I simultaneously edited the first season of the Adult Swim show Ballmstrz 9009 establishing its tone and pacing with Christy Karacas, the creator of Superjail. While working on two full seasons I worked with the creators at Titmouse to edit and deliver pitches for numerous yet to be announced properties. |
