Gary Conn Jr.

Experience

Over two decades of continuous on-the-job experience in every aspect of TV production and project management. I present creative solutions to new and existing problems by drawing on my years of experience as an editor, producer, director, and manager.

Why me? I am creative, responsible person who enjoys working with others or alone. I savor challenges in the continuously expanding field of audio and visual media. While I have an extensive technical background, I feel that one of my strongest points is my ability to manage a project from inception to completion while staying on budget and on time. My work history demonstrates that I am a hard-working, dedicated person. I will make my experience and skills your asset.
