Video Editor

Rachel McElroy

An experienced and passionate Editor, I bring imagination and a creative flare to every film. I review rushes quickly and efficiently

and precision is paramount. I thrive to create beautifully crafted narrative with a blend of visual story telling. I have a background in many areas of programming. I thoroughly enjoy working through the material independently or bouncing ideas and implementing suggestions. I am patient and a hard working team player.
