Who’s The Fonz?

Alfonso Carrion is The Fonz.

Why I Started This

Because I was in your place once. I wanted to become a Hollywood Film Editor, but I had no clue how to get started. I remember I told myself at that moment: Once I got enough credibility and experience in the industry, I would help those who were in that exact position. So here I am, helping those who want to break into Hollywood Film/TV Editing. But more importantly, to bridge that knowledge gap from how to get started to becoming a big time industry player. And that’s why I started this - to help you.
