My name is Ismael Claudio Jr. eager to continue to learn and perfect my film editing/photography skills. My passion for film started at a young age, working on individual projects and learning to use any camera I could get my hands on. I currently hold a Bachelors Degree in Film Production from Brooklyn College, and was awarded an Emmy for a magazine program for a “Come from Away Special” at Spectrum News, NY1, in which I am very proud of.

In my years working for Spectrum News, I was Lead editor for “On Stage”, a weekly 30 minute segment for Broadway/Off Broadway Shows. Through this experience, I was able to learn pacing, audio/music queues, and use visuals rather than words to tell a story.

I am married to my wonderful wife, Katerine and together we have a sweet baby boy named Calvin who has stolen our hearts away. I am grateful to God for my family and for my skills and talents in film, however, I live my life Coram Deo- To the Glory of God alone.
