To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Guy Shalem and I am an AVID/FCP editor. I edited full time until 2003 and have continued to edit as part of my overall production responsibilities since then.

During the past 5 years I’ve been working as a writer/director/producer developing programming for Fox TV Studios, VH1, Warner Brothers Online, Buena Vista Television, Sony and 20th Television Fox Lab where I sold various shows to different networks. I also directed a feature film, which I’ve co-edited. On every project in which I was involved, I played a significant role in the editing function and in fact did a great deal of the editing myself.

You can check out my reel at: http://web.mac.com/guyshalem/Site/Reel.html

I have 13 years of experience cutting trailers, reality shows and half hour comedies. You can click on the reference tab at the top and I can also send you the contact numbers for my colleagues listed.

Thanks for your time,

Guy Shalem
