Craig Rutledge - Avid Editor


About Me
I've been working in the media industry nearly ten years now. I've done sound, lighting, camera, writing, and producing.
I'm one of those people that can work on just about anything, and if I don't know it, I'll figure it out. I've pulled cable, hung lights, hung speaker cabinets, run spotlight, camera, audio, etc.
I've been editing on Avid going on eight years, never really intended on being a video editor, but some people say I'm good at it.
Fortunately I have a good range of technical and people skills, so I work well with producers, engineers, and even management.
Currently I'm waiting for our new Adrenaline system to arrive, not only for the new toy, but I'm also moving into a brand new edit suite.



About My Skills
One of the first things my fellow editor will tell you is that I'm fast. I guess it comes from my experience working in local news, and with sales departments.
One thing the news business teaches you is the importance of deadlines.
I've worked in the control room, in the studio, in the newsroom, in the tape room, in the promotions department, in creative services, and the edit suite.
I can make changes on the fly, know approximately how long it will render, and usually whether or not the producer will even like what they want.



My Work Ethic
GET IT RIGHT!!!!
That's what it boils down to. If I don't know how to do it, I''l find out how.
If i know it can look better, or sound better, I'll fix it.
Color correction - I use it everyday, not because I have to, because I can make it look better.
Audio - I started out doing audio. I don't claim to be an expert, but I could probably suprise you!
Is their a faster, better way? - I'll try to find it, but not at the expense of quality.


When It All Adds Up
I'm that guy that conceptualize, produce, edit, mix, and most importantly, COMMUNICATE.


My Work
I've built just about anything form PSA's, documentaries, shorts, series, children's, marketing presentations,
and of course, promos.
I've done quite a bit of green screen as well.
When it comes to audio, don't worry. I'll fix it if it can be fixed.


EXAMPLES OF OF MY WORK WILL BE COMING SOON.
