Video editor at IGN. I cut everything it's nerdy sun shines upon and some things it doesn't - especially trailers, promos and sizzle reels.

When they reveal the release date it should be text on top of this:
The 2025 Game Awards are tonight and I had the honor of editing this intro for IGN's coverage. Take a sneak peak and tune in tonight.
What's your Game of the Year? I just played Ape Out from 2019 because it was on sale for 2.99. So that's mine.

There is no cake
Taking care of your staff should be an easy choice. You can even do acquisitions at the same time. Just take care of your staff too - the people generating the value. This shouldn't be hard to do or understand.
Another events season in the games industry means I get to cut lots of sizzle reels, hype bumps & promos. Here's the latest:

Proud of my union. ✊

It’s been-
One week since we asked IGN Entertainment to recognize our friends on the product, engineering, and Humble Bundle teams as part of the IGN Creators Guild.
The sooner that happens, the sooner we can start working with management to build towards a stronger future for us all!
Union says fuck it, takes lunch at 11:30am to show our solidarity ✊
Today, the IGNCG is celebrating May Day! We’re a bit early, but we’re just too excited about getting our first contract done.
We’ve got pizza and pride in the work we’re doing to make IGN a better place for all of us. 💜
Today, the IGNCG sent this letter to our President of Ziff Davis Gaming & Entertainment to demand pay that reflects the rate of inflation in our contract.
Please join us in asking @errorjustin.bsky.social, @peer-ign.bsky.social, @corradimus.bsky.social, and @yprough.bsky.social to pay us fairly.

It's been a ✨while✨ since we've posted, huh?
That's because our Bargaining team has been DEEP in negotiations over our first contract for over a year now.
But we're finally getting towards the end, and we're hopeful that we can come to a fair agreement!
I mean how could you say no to these faces?
Today, IGN laid off eight extremely valuable members of our union and workforce via directive from our parent company, Ziff Davis. This, after two incredibly successful live events IGN Live and SDCC, and yet another corporate acquisition.
Please take a moment to read and share our full statement:
Today, the multibillion-dollar Ziff Davis is slashing its staff of 23 valuable ZDCG colleagues — just weeks after it finalized even more corporate acquisitions and boasted about profitability being "up." Ziff Davis is putting its spending spree ahead of its own workers. 👇
