Welcome!

 

Thanks for checking out some of my work.

 

As you've probably guessed by now, my name is Sean Yates. A little about me: I have a Bachelor of Arts in Film & Television from USC, where I really found my passion -- Editing. I love the magic of making all the hard work of production pay off. It's so rewarding to find the story in hours and hours of footage.

 

As a member of the Editor Guild (Local 700) and have worked on feature films with Academy Award nominated actors, music video with some of the biggest names in music, and commercials for Fortune 500 companies.

 

I've spent my career editing all genres on multiple formats but am most comfortable on AVID and FCP.  I also have substantial experience with advanced vfx (After effects, Nuke, Mocha, and Photoshop).  As a photographer I have learned Photoshop forward and backwards. And like most techies, I pick up programs very quickly. After all, the programs are simply tools to tell stories.

 

I love working with creative, intelligent people who are driven to find the best in everything they do.

 

Thank you for your consideration and please feel free to contact me with any questions.
