Freelance Production by Mike Hanley
Having recently graduated from film school, I'm presently looking for an entry-level post-production job in the Pittsburgh area. In the meantime, however, I also do freelance video production work.
My skills and services include:
- Video Production (MiniDV)
- Digital Video Editing
- DVD Authoring
- Video Encoding for Web Delivery (Flash, Quicktime, Windows Media, DivX, MPEG)
- Visual Effects (see my Demo Reel)
- Web Design
My current resume can be found here.
I can provide my own equipment, or use yours. The Studio page details some of the production equipment I have at my disposal.

In addition to the freelance work I've done below, I also have a collection of excerpts from some of the work I did at Syracuse University's S.I. Newhouse School of Public Cummunications. These can be found in my editing reel.
