Dear Hiring Manager, My name is Tomi Szabo, and I am a film and commercial editor with over seventeen years of professional experience across feature films, documentaries, commercials and music videos. My career began at Foto Kem Budapest, the European branch of the renowned Los Angeles film lab, FotoKem. Shortly after, I had the opportunity to work in Berlin with Oscar-nominated director Andreas Ostegaard on a documentary project. That same year, I joined the editing team of director Michael Caton-Jones, assisting on Urban Hymn in London.
In 2018, I earned my first feature-film editor credit on Asher. Since then, I have edited feature films including Our Ladies (2019), Tokikoma (2021), Larry (2022), My Father’s Daughter (2024) and Hyenas (2025), as well as short films such as The Mentor (2018). Across my career, I have contributed to more than twenty titles in various editorial roles and completed over 200 commercials and music videos. In addition to my editorial work, I previously owned a color-grading studio and worked as a colorist, giving me a deep understanding of the full post-production pipeline. I also have extensive experience with remote editing workflows, collaborating seamlessly with directors, producers, and teams across different countries and time zones. This includes managing secure media transfers, maintaining efficient feedback loops, and ensuring uninterrupted productivity regardless of location. From global commercial campaigns to Hollywood studio features, I bring a wider range of experience and a genuine passion for storytelling. My narrative instincts are strong, and I take pride in being a dedicated collaborator and reliable team player. I would like to discuss how my background and skills could contribute to your project. Thank you for your time and consideration. Best regards, Tomi Szabo
