Jonathan McDevitt (Editor)
Jonathan McDevitt does not live in Inwood, and for this he is sorry. A graduate of NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, Jonathan has been making films since the age of 10. (Hopefully the quality has improved some – if only slightly.) Since his graduation Jonathan has written a one act stage musical, filmed some weddings, edited several horror/rock and roll music videos, and stocked pens and paper at a local Staples. He would like not do that last part for very much longer, though. Ah, the life of an artist. www.mcdevittmovingpictures.
