Jake McCurdy Consulting Partner Jake is an addict of all things visual—and his enthusiasm of technology began when he first touched a computer at age 5. By the time he was 12, he was helping teach classmates Photoshop. Before he could drive he already learned the basics of 3D animation. In high school he fell in love with landscape photography and before he graduated he was offered a job with city hall in their media technology division. McCurdy became a magna cum laude Scottsdale Community College film graduate before attending Chapman University having honed skills as a designer, editor and cinematographer. As an editor, McCurdy’s work for “90” debuted in 2005 at the Hollywood Film Festival, Cleveland International Film Festival. He has used his love of technology and film to manage the business for the past two and a half years, increasing revenue by 485%. In the rare occasion you find him outside the studio, you’ll find him with Bandit, his beloved American Eskimo dog, backpacking in and out of the Grand Canyon or rebuilding his 1969 Mercury. Jake lives in San Diego and consults on a regular basis with Cinemasters. His passion: “Being the best at what we do.” |
