About this pro

I am Avid Media Composer Certified, trained by A.C.E. editors, and I use a wide variety of other editing software programs including Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro 7, or X, Photoshop, After Effects, Apple Motion, DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Media Encoder, Sorensen Squeeze, and whatever tools of the trade I can get my hands on. They are just tools, but the editor is the one with the vision. I always have a great time helping directors and producers achieve their vision. There is much more to editing than just cutting and assembling footage together. Editing is a path to an adventure that evokes emotion, telling a story with all the creative candor that the editor can summon, to bear witness to the events.

I highly recommend Stu Brown as an excellent videographer. He has recorded two programs for our school and we are all pleased with the results. He arrives on time, giving himself enough time to set-up and provides the finished product in a timely manner Rosemarie L. Cook-Glover, director Southeast Symphony (SESA) Conservatory of Music

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
For those clients who would like to pay by the hour, I have a standard pricing system in place that appears on my website, nonlinearpost.com. However, as an independent contractor, I find that most projects are accomplished best by using a flat rate. This flexibility in pricing is of benefit to most of my clientele, and exchanges clock watching for creativity.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The challenge in working with a new customer comes in establishing excellent communication. Without getting too personal, I like to know something about a clients background in order to relate to him or her in the best possible way. This is very important. To achieve mutual satisfaction, it is important for me to understand more than just the sentences that are being exchanged between us. I make the effort to visualize my clients needs by repeating the vision in laymans terms, making sure we understand each other.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
As a professional musician, I learned much about listening, hearing, harmony and timing. The spirituality that comes from playing with other musicians made it possible to sometimes communicate without the use of words. I believe these qualities set me apart. Also, being formally-trained by A.C.E. editors was a big plus.
