Introduce Yourself : Editor, Director, Producer by Erik C. Andersen

Having worked with many talented directors like Nick Cannon, Peyton Reed, Robert Rodriguez, Jan De Bont, Brett Ratner, and Doug Liman, I learned the craft of editing by working with the masters. I found early success when I won my first Emmy cutting “A COMMUNITY OF CARING - JOE" for the American Heart Assoc. That success has followed me throughout my editing career with the projects I have edited winning over 100 prestigious awards for their directors. In the early ‘90s, I helped introduce one of the first computer-based editing systems, Lightworks, to the film industry. These systems have revolutionized the way editors cut today. I am one of 15 editors who authored the book Transitions - Voices on the Craft of Digital Editing. My talents extend not only to editing, but also to directing. I have created a huge following with my internet shorts Star Wars Made Me This Way, Stop Blink Look, Behind the Scenes of the Family Guy, Battlestar Galactica – Live in Concert, and Lighten Up a TV pilot for Nancy Fox, founder of Mrs. Beasley's Gift Baskets. I am currently in post-production on three projects I directed, Aunt Norah-Unleashed, Captain Bill's Fun, Fun, Funship and my first feature-length documentary called The Fright Gallery Presents.
