Vision
Creating emotionally resonant and powerful stories takes great care by a team of skilled collaborators. Performing under pressure must be inherent. As a multi-hyphenate creative for nearly two decades, my role takes many forms. I am most often hired as a film editor, cinematographer and colorist, while writing and directing are passions I continue to grow.
The documentary genre has allowed me to take deep dives into a great number of topics, in turn shaping my understanding of history and our world. Scripted narratives have pushed me to slash through creative challenges while sculpting evocative performances into memorable moments. I give my all to each and every project, because I get just as much back in immeasurable ways.

“Eliot is an absolute pleasure to work with. During the shooting of our documentary Real Fur, Eliot went above and beyond by doing extra research and finding a hidden mink graveyard which became a pivot scene in our film, and also crowdfunding efforts. Eliot has always been friendly, and professional, and I would gladly work with him as an editor, and cinematographer again.”
