THE PERSON BEHIND THE PICTURENEW YORK CITY

AN EYE FOR
THE MOMENT.

And an ear for
the rhythm.

Ian Phillips at the 2017 Urbanworld Film FestivalIAN PHILLIPS / FILM & VIDEO EDITOR

I’m Ian. I turn footage
into stories that connect.

I’m a New York City-based film and video editor with more than 10 years of experience across scripted fiction and unscripted documentaries, feature films, web, social, and broadcast television.

I’m drawn to a story’s most captivating moments—the look, the pause, the unexpected turn. My work is about finding those moments and giving them the space, pace, and context to land.

The films I’ve edited have earned festival recognition and Netflix distribution. My short-form and social work has reached millions of viewers, and my portfolio includes Webby-winning work.

I bring a clear understanding of a brand’s message and experience balancing multiple projects against tight deadlines.
