Portfolio
Plugins & Tools
Custom Adobe Premiere Pro panels built in-house at Spliced Films to speed real editorial work — from transcript-driven assembly to ingest prep, sync, multicam, delivery, and audio metadata.
ProjectPrep
Ingest prep in a single panel: build and sort bins, import media, then sync, group multicam, and build string-outs — handing organized footage straight to the cut.
Script Splicer
Four tools in one panel — Paper Cut, Take Cut, Line by Line, and Markers — that turn Premiere transcripts and paper edits into assembled multicam rough cuts.
Meridian
An AI editorial chat panel that reads the timeline, applies looks, runs a vision pipeline on frames, and assembles sequences — driven by Groq, Claude, or OpenAI.
Mic Drop
Reads embedded iXML metadata and renames audio clips and project items to their real mic names — surviving AAF export to DaVinci Resolve and Pro Tools.
Export Ranges
Sends marked clip ranges straight to Adobe Media Encoder as a batch, with Client, VFX, and Filename naming modes plus optional tokens for clean, consistent deliverables.
EDL Exporter
Exports video and audio EDLs to the Desktop and queues a Media Encoder preset encode in one step — per-track or all-tracks, with ProRes-first preset discovery.
Audio Switcher
Lists system audio output devices and switches Premiere's hardware output without digging through preferences — with hide-device filtering and a live output readout.
Open to feature, series, commercial and immersive projects.
