I edited (and also wrote, produced and directed) this video for Touchstone, one of Seattle's biggest commercial real-estate developers. Ever heard of South Lake Union? They basically built it.
Experience (18+ years) = efficiency. Once given general guidelines, I start making decisions to advance the edit, without needing someone to tell me what to do at each turn. Producers love working with me because they get so much of their own work done during our edit sessions!
