My name is Jacob Taves and I am a film student based in Phoenix, Arizona, USA. With a passion for storytelling and creative visual expression, I specialize in creating dynamic and engaging video content.
As a film student, I have honed my skills in all aspects of video production, from concept development to post-production, editing, and visual effects. With experience in narrative, commercial, and experimental filmmaking, I bring a unique perspective and a fresh approach to every project I undertake.

I have also interned as an editor for the Arizona Game and Fish Department, and for the archives department of Paramount Pictures.
