Hello! My name is Jacob Donohue and I am a working Editor, Assistant Editor, and DIT. Originally from Las Cruces, New Mexico my passion for film making and all things editorial has led me to LA to continue to pursue film and get my MFA in film editing at Chapman University.
Before film I worked in engineering and this background has continued to inform my workflow in the medium of film as a highly detailed and considerate editor. Whether I am solving a logistical issue as an assistant editor or an emotional puzzle as the editor I give it my all and am immensely passionate about the world of post production and workflow.
I have had the good fortune to work on numerous projects ranging from editing and conforming features to doing on set DIT and media management jobs for companies like Hulu and Vox Media.
Above all I seek to learn and grow with my collaborators as each project is a unique learning experience. That is part of why I fell in love with film, it is constantly evolving and growing, which is what I aspire to do as well.
