Candidate Detail
More than 15 years of experience editing in professional environments gave me strong storytelling skills, post-production technical knowledge and problem solving ideas. I’m usually the “go-to-guy” for the team (specially on technical questions) and I enjoy to teach, give my opinion and guidance to my teammates to help them make better work.
My nerdy background pushes me to learn about new formats, codecs, video related software and workflows to work smarter, not harder. I can create a new piece of video from any kind of footage, remix old projects from the archives, edit fresh raw shots on set or dive into hours, days or weeks of content for your next tv show.
From fast turn-around 10 seconds social media ads to long-form documentaries I can manage projects from concept to completion, working unsupervised following a script or using my creative editorial background to craft the basics of the idea up to collaborate directly with producers, creative directors or art directors to deliver engaging quality video content to the audience in a timely manner.

I also create new content from previously broadcasted shows when editing Promos, Tune-Ins, Capsules, Case Studies, Upfronts and Sales Videos for Discovery Networks.

For this job I had to learn a lot about new codecs, formats, workflows and software (Final Cut Pro 7, DaVinci Resolve and ScratchLAB) to implement that knowledge on the films postproduced in the company.
At Cinecolor I had two positions: Data Manager for Long Form projects and Senior Video Editor for TV Commercials.
As a data manager I had to be very organized, be able to work unsupervised and self-manage time in order to complete my assignments in a timely manner for my colleges (specially the color grading artist) taking in consideration the huge amount of data I had to work with. My main tasks were: conforming from offline to color grading, subtitling, mastering to tape and deliveries for Colombian short and feature films: Chocó, El Cartel de los Sapos, Carrusel, Anina, Bolaetrapo, De Rollin por Colombia, La Eterna Noche de las Doce Lunas, Las flores, Mu Drua.
