Over the past 10 years, I have had the pleasure of working with Mr. Jason Richter at various motion picture advertising agencies. We have worked on a number of theatrical and broadcast campaigns promoting various motion pictures. I can say without any reservation, he is one of the most reliable, versatile, creative, and efficient editors I know. In our first days together as co-workers, I was witness to Jason’s evolution from assistant to full editor. It was evident right away that he would excel at his craft. While most assistants would put in the bare minimum time, Jason stayed late and practiced the craft of editing, always exploring ways to grow creatively. He sought constructive feedback and honed his skilled, ultimately becoming a full editor.

Jason’s drive and dedication to the craft are matched only by his desire to learn and understand all of the aspects of the process. While many editors might be good in the edit bay creatively, which Jason most certainly is, not all editors have a clear understanding of the finishing process, including the various technical aspects of finishing, whether for HD, film, broadcast, or the web. I have seen many times where Jason’s technical knowledge has helped a finishing team solve a dilemma that was holding up the process, which, as you might know, can be considerably expensive.

But Jason’s real talents and values reside in his editorial skills. He is a solid storyteller, who understands how to develop conflict and characters within a well-crafted story structure, making any of his editorial endeavors compelling. You can trust him in the edit bay to make whatever he is cutting showcase the movie in the best possible light.

Jason would be a great asset to any shop or client looking to hire a outstanding go-to editor who can handle any task sent his way. Feel free to phone me to discuss this recommendation in further detail.

This is a letter of referral for Jason Richter, with whom I've had the pleasure of working with on a variety of audio visual projects. Jason and I have collaborated on a handful of  trailers, several television spots and a number of entertainment sizzle reels. I can attest not only to Jason's reliability and dedication to the project at hand but his passion and creativity as well. Jason works independently and can produce a first pass at any creative piece once the basic direction has been discussed and the objective laid out. He always comes up with fresh and innovative ideas, has solid musical instincts and is very adept at finessing his cuts. He is thorough and efficient. He is also a technical whiz and can handle any hardware/software/output crisis that may arise. This is an additional strength that has been invaluable to me and my company. I would recommend Jason for any staff position, for permanent or free-lance work. I am happy to share more about Jason in person. My contact information is found below.

As a producer for Parallel Media, I have worked closely with Jason over the last couple of years on trailers and promos for our features. He is a great storyteller and provides great insight and advice on projects. He works with your rather than for you. In my experience working with him, he has proved to be a valuable addition to any project big or small. Furthermore, he delivers on time and on budget which is critical for any producer. I would highly recommend Jason for any project.
