PRODUCER DIRECTOR SCREENWRITER EDITOR ON AIR TALENT
Los Angeles 310-***-**** · adntet@r.postjobfree.com
Unique as a producer because of hands on experience in multiple areas of film (including being lead and supporting talent), video and music production, I understand the entire process from pre- production to delivery of final product. As a supervising producer, director, writer, host and actor in multiple films and projects (TV, cable and internet), I have a deep understanding of budget, how to use it, where to use it and how to save it. I have worked in literally every position on a set and in post so I understand the crew and professionals involved in finalizing film and video projects. I’m also a professional music producer and audio engineer. With a strong marketing, branding and product development background, I also understand global branding, product placement, diversity and integration. Having produced and directed multiple feature films I understand motivating and leading a team.
