Assistant to Director / Assistant Editor
I worked over 2 years with the creative team from pre-production to its premiere. I was chiefly responsible for logistics and quality of the whole post-production process. I travelled across China for 5 months during principal photography, as assistant to director and part of the editing / making-of team.
