Connor Michael Sullivan
Welcome! Here you’ll find my reel, trailers for the films I've cut, and examples of my editing.
About Me
I was raised in San Diego, California, where I made my first steps into the world of filmmaking. After a successful high school career leading the school's monthly show and creating numerous short films I was accepted into NYU's Tisch School of the Arts for Film and Television Production. Here I worked in the Post Production Center and interned on Samuel Pollard's "Slavery By Another Name."
After graduating in 2012 I jumped into the world of freelance editing, assisting on several features and cutting numerous shorts. In 2016 I cut Nicolas Pesce’s feature debut “The Eyes of My Mother”, which premiered at Sundance and was released by Magnet. This time period also included work for several prestigious companies including BBDO, Tandem Pictures, and Los York TV. I simultaneously became a Media Wrangler for NFL Films, managing their game-day digital workflow for the cameramen at each game.
In 2017 I made my way to Daily Mail TV, where I operated as the Lead Assistant Editor for 4 seasons before ascending to full-time editing for Season 5. We won the Emmy for Best Entertainment News Program in 2018 during our second season! In August of 2022 Daily Mail TV finished it's 5th and final season, leading me to back to my true-calling in the world of scripted narrative.
My most recent work was cutting the short film "Swipe NYC," which premiered Wednesday, April 19th at the Beverly Hills Film Festival and won Best Comedy Short. Swipe was also accepted into the Provincetown International Film Festival, the Portland Comedy Film Festival, and the Montclair International Film Festival.
