About Me

My photo
I have been working in the television/video industry for twenty years. I spent ten years at the CBC in Toronto where I worked as an Assistant Director, and later designed news graphics for CBC Newsworld. Since 2000 I have been in Montreal working as a documentary Video Editor (Adobe Premiere and Final Cut Pro) and a Graphic Designer. I have done illustrations for McGill University, been publishd in the medical journal "Parkhurst Exchange", designed cd cases and posters, and been involved in a number of animation projects.

It Was A Woman

I was the Video Editor and created the animations for "It Was A Woman", a feature documentary directed by Cherri Low Horn. The animations are based on Cherri's original artwork and are combined with live action documentary segments. This sample is the opening segment of "It Was A Woman" and introduces us to Cherri as she begins to detail her childhood experience of having been sexually abused by a woman.
