About MeOpen or Close

Did I mention I love editing?!

Hi, I'm Josiah.

I'm from Omaha, Nebraska, though I'm currently in Indiana studying Film Production at Huntington University. My focus in the film industry is post production, especially editing.

On the side, I enjoy developing websites, managing servers and utilizing social media. I started my own website, NewtotheMac.info and am also in the process of developing several other web properties.

Editing. Motion Graphics.

Hard Worker. Team Player
When it comes to film production, post production is my strongest area. Editing is my passion, though I also thoroughly enjoy motion graphics, VFX, and to a certain degree, cinematography and writing.

I have a thorough understanding of most non-linear editing software on the market. Most of my editing is done in Final Cut and Premier Pro CS6. I have used and have experience with Smoke and Avid, though I do not use them regularly. I'm very familiar with all of the Adobe CS6 applications, especially Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, After Effects and Audition.

I'm blessed to be ably to pick up new software extremely fast, and I'm eager to learn.

The new site is based on an existing Wordpress theme, with a high amount of CSS and PHP customization to fit the Church's needs. The site is a high traffic site, so a lot of work was done for server optimization and caching.

    Jasper, a twenty-something man is living in a raw and dark alternate reality of 1950s America. Jasper’s mother has just been killed by a man bearing “the mark” on his hand, signifying a member of a race of people with supernatural powers. One year later, Jasper is a member of a gang led by Thackery, a ruthless man bent on wiping out the race of “marked” people. Sadie, a girl who also bears the mark, wanders alone through the war-ravaged South. Unsure of what he really believes, Jasper begins to pull away from the gang.
