Looking for full time jobs in television production in LA or Orlando. I currently live in Orlando but will gladly re-locate to LA. I'm able to multi task, direct LIVE TV (and TD), edit using FCP 7 & X, familiar with Adobe Premiere Pro (ACA certified), work with client present in edit sessions, camera operator--including JIB.
I have taught Television Production and editing for 10 years so I understand how to teach/explain things and work with people of all ages and needs. My experience in teaching and the many tasks I coordinate would be an asset to you. I've also toured twice (Merch Mgr. and Roadie) and learned a lot being on the rod in a fast paced environment. I'm excited to continue to learn and grow in television production!
