Lamont Smith’s Summary

I have over 8 years experience editing Emmy-Award winning reality television shows as well as music, lifestyle and entertainment programming. My work has run the gamut from 50 Cent and Justin Timberlake for The Source: All Access and Weekend Vibe to highlighting the stylish and frenetic world of New York Fashion Week and inside looks at the lives of Vera Wang and Marc Jacobs for style.com to behind the scenes with Madonna, John Mayer and the Rolling Stones for the AT&T Blue Room music website.

In addition, I have served as First Assistant Director on independent music video projects and I'm currently focused on expanding my knowledge base and mastering Final Cut Pro and Adobe After Effects. I'm also in the process of developing my political blog.
