DIRECTOR’S REELS

  • “Sean Olson is an incredible director/editor that I had the pleasure of working with, he’s a hard working individual with an amazing eye and a total team player, he’s someone that I would love to work with on future projects !!!!!”

    Phil James  /  Executive Producer KOLD X WINDY

  • “What I loved working with Sean the most is that he understood the story I wanted to tell and cared as much about an actor’s performance in the editing room as I did when I was on set. That he’s a genuinely good guy to work with and a master at pacing and storytelling didn’t hurt either.”

    Georgina Garcia Riedel / Director HOW THE GARCIA GIRLS SPENT THEIR SUMMER

  • “You work as fast as I think - which no editor has ever done. Many times when I was coming up with a solution, you were right there with me, already implementing it and sometimes you surpassed me. Remember at one point I just stopped thinking and watched you do your magic.

    Gregory Zymet / Director WORMHOLE CHASERS

  • “Editing is such a pivotal part of storytelling and Sean has the amazing gift of bringing the Director’s vision to life. His thought and consideration about story, character and structure is invaluable. I waited until Sean was free to edit my project because, honestly, no one else would do.”

FEATURED PROJECTS

“Max Winslow And The House Of Secrets is an exceptional movie. Olson, who also edited the movie, strikes the perfect tonal balance of drama- stemming from the characters’ personal demons- intense thrills, visceral excitement, and comedy.”

— Bobby LePire - FILM THREAT
