Justin's creativity has contributed immensely to our team projects. Our team has just won a 2015 Telly Award. Justin was editor and creative contributor.

Kevin Randolph

Justin was one of my favorite instructors at the International Academy of Design and Technology. He introduced me to the growing knowledge that I now have of Adobe After Effects. His instruction was instrumental in my maturity and growth; not only in Motion Graphics, but the entire discipline of Digital Media as a whole.

      • Nov 2019 - May 2020

      I was hired to post supervise "Adam" for Gilbert films and Woodward Original. It was a career challenge take a film shot in 2009 and edited with standard-def film dailies and run it through a 4k DI finishing process in 2020. "Adam" was released in 2021 through Voltage Pictures. I was hired to post supervise "Adam" for Gilbert films and Woodward Original.

      I was hired to produce 75 VFX shots for this film in 2016. The budget was minimal and the timeline extremely tight. I hand picked the artists in Detroit and we had to coordinate with the lead VFX team in Bulgaria and the production team in Los Angeles. The shots were delivered on time and under budget.

    • Editor, Producer | Jinn
      • Jul 2010 - Apr 2014

      Jinn is a feature film I co-produced, co-edited, and post supervised. The film was shot anamorphic on 35mm film. One of the most challenging aspects was creating a post production workflow using standard-def dailies edited in Final Cut Pro that translated over to the DI finish finishing protocols at Warner Bros. Maintaining key code was a must. I managed and produced over 300 VFX shots and created an in-house visual effects department to cut costs. Jinn provided me with my first opportunity to work on the Warner Brothers lot in their post production facilities, including the Eastwood Scoring Stage. I also got to sound design and mix at the Skywalker Ranch with Academy Award Nominee Steve Boeddeker as well as overseeing deliverables to national theater chains, international territories, and all streaming services. Jinn was released theatrically on 4/4/14 and is currently available on all major streaming platforms. ** I edited this trailer. Show less

      This was the last commercial post production company I worked for before transitioning to the film world. The reel represents the commercial projects I edited from that era.
