A BRIEF HISTORY OF MURDER

I created this Rip-Reel for a Netflix/History pitch. Every Soundbite/piece of footage I found from TV Shows/Docs or movies. I Rotoscoped all the Medieval pictures and added depth/motion to them. The graphics started as a Videohive template which grew into my own design.

YELLOWSTONE GOLD

This was a pitch for Discovery Channel which had over 3 Days of footage and 8 interviews to go through. In the end, I siphoned through all the interviews, soundups, B-roll and In-scene moments to bring it all together.

LEGENDS, LIES AND OUTRIGHT LORE

This was a huge edit that started as a doc-series about a bear attack and morphed into an ongoing series about Steven Rinella traveling the world. This is the Original Rip-Rell version of the Sizzle. See the Paid Sizzle Above.

12-WEEK TRAINER

Promos

This was the biggest project I've ever worked on....Running a team of 3 other editors, I had a hand in creating/producing over 74 videos within 3 months....A team in Mumbai, India, filmed everyday for 72 days straight, and rough-cut together 30 minute episodes which they sent to our team. I then created the main template, which my other editors copied, and then I finalized notes on every one. This video was the main trailer/program which I created by sourcing the footage from all 72 days.

BIG SKY GOLD

This was a monster project with over 8 interviews and 3 days of footage. It took months to put together and changed multiple times. This show was picked up for 2 seasons (so far) and airs on Fox Nation

KING OF THE CASTLE

This rip-reel was a pain to create, mainly because all the footage was stock and needed a commercial license to be shown on TV. The tape went many directions and was about 3 minutes longer until the last week they had us cut it down...And change all the music...And update the script...And add voice over...(How most sizzles operate)

MT EVEREST JUMP

This is a skype tape which was pitched to QUIBI and bought just before the Pandemic, which ultimately cancelled all plans for production. Another fun reel created from skype interviews and ripped footage found online.

CAVE OF TEARS

What a fun project this was......Many executives we pitched this too couldn't finish the tape because they were too uncomfortable. I used a combination of Sound design and editing prowess to bring this skype tape to life.

LARRY ENTICER

This was another Rip-Reel I created for a Discovery Channel pitch. The network loved it and wanted to buy but issues with contracts and outside influences had different ideas. In the end, this still ended up being a fun project to create.

TRUTH & DARE

This was a paid sizzle that we shot but also has a ton of ripped content added in. This was the first true "Horror" sizzle I've created and had a ton of fun creating the sound design and adding tension in where needed.

INTO THE STORM

This was a super fun rip-reel I created to pitch to a variety of networks. I found all the footage, soundbites and media from online and put this together in about a week.

GOING BIG

Let's admit, these boats are a little funny looking, I wanted to make this skype pitch look both dangerous and exhilarating, but get across that these boats are better than the rest. I created the graphics by rotoscoping boats, adding a water splash, ink reveal and some depth.

LIFE BEFORE PEOPLE

One of the hardest parts about creating Rip-Reels, is finding good quality video to use. This edit took a while to create because of the amount of script changes and network direction given. In the end, another network beat us to the punch with a similar show concept.

LIFE ON A VOLCANO

Something a little different than the rest, this was a pitch for Nat Geo which evolved from seals talking with human voices, to what you see before you. Since we cut all the voices, the edit had to rely on sound design/music to keep the energy and immerse you into the world.

CHARLIE MIKE SERIES

These 3 videos I created for a 5-Video series...Setting the tone/template for the other videos, I opted for a faster/hard-hitting feel to get the audience hyped for the program.

MODERN PHYSIQUE

Here's a promo/Intro I created for a fitness training program, leaning more into the slow/epic approach.

BODYBUILDING.COM

This is a commercial I created which aired on ESPN / ESPN2 and got some great feedback for the company. This was a lot of fun to put together, and ended up being three spots in total (:15 :30 :60seconds)

RIPPED REMIX

Yet another Training program for Bodybuilding.com. This one was particularly fun to create because how unique the training style is.

LIFE ON A VOLCANO

Something a little different than the rest, this was a pitch for Nat Geo which evolved from seals talking with human voices, to what you see before you. Since we cut all the voices, the edit had to rely on sound design/music to keep the energy and immerse you into the world.

HOW AMERICA WORKS

This was a rip-reel pitch for Fox Business. The bought it and it's now airing! I found all the footage from youtube/dirty jobs and we had Mike Rowe read a VO which I edited too.

CABIN MEN

This was a pitch for History Channel which had over 3 Days of footage to go through. In the end, I siphoned through all the interviews, soundups, B-roll and In-scene moments, as well as created custom graphics to bring it all together.
