Sometimes a producer needs to have someone with “beginner’s eye” look at a rough cut or a fine cut. It is easy to lose perspective after so many viewings of the same material. If you’d like a fresh set of eyes, I could look at a cut at any phase of the creative process and give notes on an hourly basis. This can either be a one-time consult or it could be the beginning of a short-term collaboration. I have consulted on films for as little as half a day and as long as three weeks. In each case, my goal is to help the producer realize and then exceed their vision in the edit suite.
