Oh … Premiere Pro … how do I get frustrated by you … let me count the ways … Working on single films I had pushed and pulled and screamed, and got to a happy method of working with Premiere […]

The Edit So much of what I present to the public relies upon the edit. The judicious pruning. I’m not sure what percentage of my time is spent doing this – either consciously or subconsciously. But each piece of work, […]

Art is better now than it’s ever been. It’s better than the greats. It has impact and wow, and visual and political punch. It’s tenacious and wild, confrontational, angry and eloquent. Simultaneously it’s valueless and short-lived. A deluge of painstaking, […]
