Have you ever flown over the desolate, watery continent of Greenland on an international journey? It's a remarkable experience that always gives me the feeling that I am really getting somewhere. Much like the experience of producing and completing a film, which is why I named my production company OverGreenland Productions.
OverGreenland Productions was founded in 2002 by me, Austyn Steelman following my graduation from the University of California at Santa Cruz. Since the conception of OverGreenland Productions, I have written, produced, shot, directed and edited seven short films and two music videos. My films cover a broad range of subjects from experimental short to comedy to personal documentary to documentary. In March 2006 I released my first feature length film Exposing Headshots: Hip Hop Below Zero, a hip hop documentary based on a Minneapolis production company called Rhymesayers Entertainment. Since it's release the documentary has taken on a life of it's own and is still being discovered by fans worldwide. As a completely independent filmmaker I have always had to play many different roles in my productions. Because of this I have a well rounded knowledge of all aspects of filmmaking from the earliest stages of pre-production through the final stages of post. Although I enjoy all aspects of filmmaking my main focus is in editing. My ultimate goal is to be an editor for narrative and/or documentary feature films. I enjoy assisting directors in bringing their vision to life. I would love to be the editor on your next film/video. I have been working with Final Cut Pro since 2000. While my main platform is FCP I also have experience editing in AVID, creating motion graphics in After Effects and Photoshop and producing DVD menus in DVD Studio Pro. I am currently working as a freelance video editor in the SF Bay area. I am always looking for my next creative collaboration and am always working on new ideas. |
