What I do
Post Production Services I Offer
Post-production supervision is the guardian of a project's creative vision. It ensures a smooth and efficient transition from the editing room to the final screen, protecting the project's integrity while keeping it on schedule and within budget. Without a dedicated supervisor, a project can face technical hurdles, communication breakdowns, and unforeseen costs.

Creative direction is the visionary force behind a project. It's about defining a cohesive strategy that shapes the overall look, feel, and voice of all creative output. The right creative direction ensures every element—from design and visuals to messaging—is unified, compelling, and perfectly aligned with the project's goals

Heli is a fantastic editor. He took hours of raw footage from our music video and shaped it into a dynamic, engaging narrative. Their ability to find the rhythm of the track and cut to the beat was exceptional.
