Side Project Time!

Recently, my sister, Karina McBeth (INSTAGRAM LINK), approached me to collaborate with her on a personal project. As she is a professional storyboard artist, she decided to create a short story sequence for fun, and asked me to help cut the animatic for her.

Personal Work Set Up!

It’s been an awesome challenge getting to fully dive in to editing this sequence as well as bounce ideas off of my sister. We’ve been running real time Edit Sessions thanks to the help of Twitch and Discord. Twitch allows us to run the cut back without any delays or snags in the playback, while Discord has given us a means of doing voice and video chat through a separate channel.

I can’t wait to eventually show you all the fruits of our labor. It’s a real passion project and has been a joy to work on. I’ll be sure to update here as soon as we’ve wrapped up. Until then, just know that we are tirelessly tinkering away on this and can’t wait to put it out in the world soon enough!

If you would like to follow along, be sure to check out my Instagram: the.bigchair . I’ve been starting to ramp us using this account a bit more, so stay tuned to see updates on it about work, editing, and other exciting side ventures!

Cheers!

New Creations

It's that season again! Time to refresh my Editorial Reels. It's out with the old, and in with some fresh, new material.

My most recent addition is a short animatic that I helped cut and mix for my sister. She decided to create a storyboard sequence based off of one of the comics in her "Nickel a Day" series where she recounts funny incidents from her daily life. I won't spoil the story for you, but I will say it has to do with a certain colorful, natural beauty in the sky. It was a lot of fun getting back to editing again, working on making my cuts tighter and more seamless to move the story along. I'm hoping to cut more sequences in the future and do more collaborations to keep my skills up.

Hope you enjoy viewing these updated reels!
