In the following comparison, I have listed what I perceive to be the needs of a media client and my relevant qualifications to make a positive contribution.

graphics

Worked as a paste-up artist using real paste in 1979. I rode a dinosaur to work.  Started and managed Houston's first electronic graphics department in 1984 while at Hit Video USA. Opened Houston's first computer animation studio, The Electric Palette, in 1987.

web

Knowledgeable in Dreamweaver, Flash, Fireworks, Media Cleaner, Illustrator, Photoshop, Cubase and other related software.

video editing

19 years experience on most major and some minor editing systems including Final Cut Pro.  I have worked on projects ranging from underground music videos to the Exxon Valdez project in Anchorage, Alaska. The Exxon money was great, man.

film / tv skills

At one time or another I've had to do just about every job there is related to production including P.A., art department, and sound and editing. My best efforts have been in cinematography, in both 16mm and 35mm film as well as digital Beta.

writing

20 years of writing and script-editing experience including various spec projects and a rewrite job for ROI Films "Bad Moon."  Comfortable with deadlines and pressure.

sound & music

Built my own recording studio in the 80's where I produced a couple of albums and composed music for corporate clients.  Still making music for corporate clients.

communication

My verbal and written communication skills are excellent.

attitude

I'm generally in a good mood.  Have you heard different?
