Supervising Producer

4th & LOUD – AMC

4th and Loud is a 10 episode docu-series focused on the inaugural season of the LA KISS arena football team. The show, which will followed the players and coaches as they tried to turn LA’s first professional football team in years into a winning franchise, featured owners Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons of the rock band KISS, as well as long-time manager, Doc McGhee. The series premiered on AMC in the summer of 2014.

As Supervising Producer & Lead Editor on this series I oversaw the entire post production process from the first frame of edit to the final mixed and color corrected master. I collaborated directly with the Executive Producers at Think Factory and AMC Networks to bring their vision to life.  As part of that I was instrumental in developing the style and tone of the series overseeing the day to day editorial process of managing all 6 editors, working with the post-supervisor on post-schedules and budgets, coordinating screenings with EP’s, working hand-in-hand with my counterpart in the story department to develop story & character archs as well as scripting interview questions and pick ups as needed.  In addition, I oversaw and recorded all voice over sessions, online and color grading sessions as well as the final audio mix sessions. Every episode was finalized and approved by me before going to air.  I did all this while continuing to edit and lock episodes.

This series is a true representation of my producing and editing work and while it may not have made it to a second season I’m proud to have had the opportunity to have worked on it.

Hatfields & McCoys: White Lightning

Hafields & McCoys: White Lightning – Season 1, Episode 1 – Original Air Date 08/01/2013 Supervising Producer/Lead Editor About the show… To this day, the backwoods descendants of the Hatfields and McCoys continue to live in the remote and volatile hollows along the West Virginia and Kentucky border. Settled in one of the poorest areas of the country, they work in coal mines, hunt squirrels, raise goats, revere their grannies, make moonshine and take pride in their history. While more than 100 years has passed since their historic feud began, locals know there is still no love lost between the Hatfields and McCoys. Now, a new state law could make things even worse, starting a whole new chapter of their infamous rivalry. To aid a troubled economy, West Virginia recently legalized the distillation and sale of moonshine. Residents can now openly sell the once-illicit whiskey their ancestors killed and died for. Seeing the potential for a hot new brand and billion dollar profits, a St. Louis investor offers to set the Hatfields and McCoys up in business to make a completely “authentic” HATFIELD & MCCOY Moonshine. The families must supply their legendary recipes, well water and family labor, and they must agree to work together. “Every silver lining has its cloud,” Granny McCoy sighs. Hatfields & McCoys: White Lightning follows these two famous families as they try to put aside their hateful history and come together to build a new business. Their story is less about making moonshine and more about the clashes between and within the two families that threaten success at every turn. The only thing they agree on is that they are suspicious of their new investor: “He seems as trustworthy as a fox in a henhouse,” says patriarch Mark Hatfield. Progress is slow and often comedic as tempers flare up, tensions run high and family competition and century-old rivalries continue on a whole new level. Can the Hatfields and McCoys get past their famous feud and find a path to a brighter future and a new...
