Testimonials
“Adriana is a very talented and industrious editor who has a great ‘eye’ for a shot or sequence. She is as adept at editing long and short-form stories and features as she is doing basic voiceovers. She has great self-discipline and initiative while also having a superb team ethic.
As a newsroom writer, I have total confidence in Adriana every time I have given a task. She always meets deadlines”
“It’s never ideal to meet somebody professionally when you’re racing towards a deadline for a national news broadcast, and there’s nothing that strikes fear into a producer’s heart like seeing an unfamiliar face in the edit suite with 90 minutes to air.
Despite this, Adriana quickly won me over with her obvious intelligence, speedy skills and professional demeanor. She manages to put her special touch on our items despite crushing deadlines and less-than-perfect conditions.
A pleasure to work with.”
“Working with Adriana over the past couple of years has been a pleasure. She is incredibly professional & the quality of her work has always been exceptional. I have worked with her for a number of client projects and always get positive feedback on the videos she’s helped me produce. I always look forward to the opportunities where we can work together!”
“Adriana is an extremely personable and professional young woman. She is easy to work with, an attentive listener who quickly grasps concepts, routinely contributing her own helpful ideas. Adriana’s attention to detail means that the finished project requires few, if any changes. I was confident in providing her with general outlines and information knowing that she would come back to me with what I was looking for.
I would highly recommend Adriana and would be pleased to discuss her work with any prospective employer.”
