Consulting
I have had extensive experience screening and advising on documentary
rough cuts. There are several ways I can can help you with your film:
– Screen and give one set of notes
– Screen at intervals during your edit schedule
– Take your almost finished film and fine cut it to completion.
Below are examples of different ways I have consulted on productions. Please email me to discuss your needs.

At Home in Utopia
Directed by Michal Goldman, 2008
Michal was editing her own film. Starting at the rough cut stage, I visited the cutting room 3 times. I would screen and give notes then come back several weeks later to assess progress.
It’s Criminal
Directed by Signe Taylor, 2017
Signe came to me with an almost finished film. Over the course of 4 days I worked on polishing - trimming some scenes, smoothing edits, fine tuning transitions, music cues, graphics, etc. This film went on to win awards at 4 film festivals and air on PBS.
