Hi! I’m an experienced film & video director/editor based in Montreal, with close to 10 years of work in television, cinema, music videos, as well as marketing and promotional content. My journey with TFO, a Canadian French-language broadcaster and streamer, has molded me to the demands of the industry: directing various video content; making quick on-set decisions under pressure; video and sound editing with tight deadlines. My versality (studio, field, live, editing room) and my natural ability to overcome stress in demanding environments corresponds perfectly to your needs. On top of my television experience, I’m also a film director and producer. My second short film, “Bad Dreams”, is in post-production and will be starting a festival run in 2026. Furthermore, I’ve had the pleasure of directing, producing, shooting and editing various music videos and promos for Canadian music artist City Fidelia. These very different work environments and my innate passion for images has kept me up to date on modern editing styles and techniques, as well as the latest plugins and tools available. You can find a selection of work samples on the second page of my CV. I’d love to get a chance to talk about how my skills in video editing can benefit your company. Cheers, Jonathan
