DIT PROJECTS
These are some projects where I was the Digital Imaging Technician/Data Wrangler. I additionally assisted with Dailies, Media Management, and was an Assistant Editor for these projects.
UNTITLED BAND PROJECT PILOT EPISODE
Oct. 20th-Nov. 11th, 2022
During my time at Lighthouse Films, I worked on the Jonas Pate's Untitled Band Project's Pilot Episode as a DIT and 2nd Assistant Editor. Over four weeks of principal photography, I ingested 86.68 TB of RAW footage from seven camera sources using ShotPut Pro and Parashoot to LTO tapes and multiple RAID 5 enterprise level hard drives.
​
From that large amount of media, I organized, categorized, added a LUT/minor color adjustments, and synced 109 hours and 4 minutes of footage in DaVinci Resolve. From there, I made transcodes and screeners with the according Scene, Take, Camera Source, Script Notes, and Timecode for the Lead Assistant Editor. I then uploaded the dailies for each production day to frame.io.
​
Following that, I then assisted in the preparation to send the transcoded media to the Lead Assistant Editor within the Avid Media Composer workflow where I grouped scenes and uploaded the transferred this media by using an Avid NEXIS to the editors working in Los Angeles.
ACROSS THE MULTIVERSE SHORT FILM
March, 2023
For this short independent film, I worked as the DIT, Dailies Technician, and Assistant Editor. This production shot over 2 days where I ingested media to double redundancy drives from a Sony FX6 that shot in XAVC-L 4K SLog 3.
This film was shot with anamorphic lenses, but due to the FX6 camera's settings, it does not internally de-squeeze the footage. Within DaVinci Resolve, I re-formatted the footage to its correct aspect ratio and made transcodes of the media; where I then organized, categorized, added a LUT, and manually synced audio due to the audio recorder they used on set.
​
From there, I organized the media and production audio within an Adobe Premiere Pro Project. I also created stringout sequences per scene for the Lead Editor before they received the footage so they could start immediately on the film's edit. Lastly, I grabbed multiple still frames from the film's dailies so that they could be shared and utilized within the marketing of this film.
