Social Youtube edit done for MTV Content Wheel team produced by Joe Maziarski. Great example of good use of music to match talent and animations applied with SFX.

Fun edit done for MTV Brand Social team, produced by the amazing Cheryl Krucas. Proud of this edit since I chose music to closely match the tracks referenced by talent, often matching the very tempo and melody being discussed.
