Mad Box is a new post crew that is working in the downtown Richmond area.  The work being done at Mad Box is on par with New York professional post houses.  They recently decided to add me as one of their editors and I’m very honored to start working with Mr. Williams and the rest of the crew. The 9WG facility that houses the tapeless Mad Box room is certainly state of the art and is equipped with FCP raid editing for up to 4K resolution, generated when using a RED camera.  9W6 has some other rooms and features including a green screen in the kitchen, recording studio, in-house catering, free hotel rooms, nice people and the list goes on.  The grand opening a few weeks ago brought out post production (Malkie crew) from the Martin Agency, Runnning with Scissors. Other agencies, production crew and producers from all over joined in the festivities.  It was complete with grand tours and lots of tasty morsels. Click the image below to visit their new website…
