A Truly Excellent Edit Of Your Film / Video.
I've been in your shoes. I've made films and shorts and music videos. I've waited for months on end for the editor to complete the cut, only to get something unwatchable in return and then have to hold their hand them through the whole process while its all rebuilt from scratch and the budget slowly gets drained. Not with me. I do not compromise on quality. Never. Not in a million years. You deserve the best possible cut, as soon as possible. A clients time should not be wasted. Its my job to take care of technical proficiency and competence and make sure the result looks like it would work on any screen in part of the world. That's my philosophy. I do not do drawn out rough assemblies with subliminal black frames and poor audio or temp. Nothing to make excuses for.
I am new to Gumroad, but clients often tell me they enjoy my approach, and often ask me why others don't do it. If it was easy, everyone would do it. You could be totally new to this or a seasoned pro looking for a union editors quality on a non-union budget, it . If you care about your result, and , this is not time wasted, and you're alright in my book, and we will have a great time collaborating together.
If this seems steep, remember, I'm not charging you for gear or for "my time."
I'm not a lawyer.
You are not going to be bled dry, or given extra charges last minute or have weird time problems. This is for everything.
Upon contacting me for purchase, I'm all yours. We will discuss your vision and I will break down in exact terms for you exactly what I will do for you. Explicitly, tangibly how we are going to achieve your vision for the project, with no uncertain terms or showboating.
That being said, if you've read this far, and feel that the results of your project are less important, and price really is the deciding factor, feel free to keep searching or reach out and I can give you a recommendation. No shame in that.
If you want excellence, someone with an an artists eye, of experience working on all kinds of projects, someone who prioritizes maximum impact in his work and takes pride in doing so, or justwant to have to register with a union, pursue an overly convoluted amount of paperwork that comes traditionally from hiring an editor from a house with a sensibility, I'm here.

If you purchase but you cannot do the initial consultation for whatever reason, I will do my best to give you a full refund, but I cannot guarantee there won't be fees incurred or problems that will arise on this end to guarantee full return. It is imperative I state: Nothing is more important in this process than that. I simply cannot do my job whatsoever without it. Non-negotiable.
