ABOUT STEVE STEIN

I started my career as an editor eighteen years ago. I first began writing short films, producing and directing them. I was asked by the Chicago Short Comedy film festival to contribute films, and was happy to do so. I brought these talents to cutting commercials for the ad world.

Besides mc’ing industry shows and judging them, I’m most proud of being a co-founder of Camp Kuleshov (nee Trailer Park), which pits young editors against each other. I also created the Editor’s Roundtable and Cagematch, where editors take the same footage and show off their individuality by creating memorable pieces.

I love the power of film, but I believe there is more to life. For me, that’s where social comes in. I Facebook, Instagram, and Tweet. I Tumbl, Pinterest and Spotify. (I also G+ and Ello, although it’s been awhile.)

I’m passionate and well versed in social, specifically creating content, strategizing around it, editing it and exploring it to the fullest. It’s something I’ve brought into my current career, but in my ideal world, it would be my career.
