My path into fan editing began with Justice League. Seeing fans rework the film revealed how much meaning could be reshaped through restructuring tone and intent. My first project was ambitious and imperfect, but it proved something essential: the work mattered to me enough to pursue seriously.
A turning point came through studying detailed fan edit changelogs, particularly within the Star Trek community. The precision and intentionality behind those edits demonstrated how deeply a film could be refined while still feeling native to its source. That standard became the benchmark I aim for in my own work.
My process is driven by emotional connection to the material. I choose projects I care about and shape them into versions I want to return to, aiming to surface what was buried under noise. The challenge is creating something that feels renewed while remaining faithful to the original film.
Editing functions as both therapy and discipline, with each project sharpening my instincts. What drives the work forward is imagination and a focus on shaping how stories are felt. This process pushes my creative boundaries and keeps me moving toward new challenges.
