Stan is an industry-proven professional with a wide range of experience in production, post-production, live events and broadcasts. Breaking into entertainment through Mixed Martial Arts, he went on to work extensively in Action Sports, Travel Adventure, Reality TV, Documentaries, Brand Marketing, and Social Media Content. Growing up in Hawai'i exposed Stan to a variety of cultures, which enables him to view the world through multiple perspectives. His fluid outlook continues to inspire his craft as a Director, Producer, and Editor.
Developing UHD workflows for narrative series and independent features, he quickly realized that technology must be leveraged in order to unleash the creative power that can best serve the growing media marketplace. In December 2015, while working a televised live event that required immediate editing and rebroadcasting, he conceived of Chop Shop Media and visualized transforming the way video editing could and should be done. Now his Cloud-based remote post-production team is a reality, and the possibilities are endless.
