Looking for a crowd pleaser for the holidays? Look no further than “Mucho, Mucho Amor”. A beautifully made film by Muck Media, it tells the story of the rise of Walter Mercado. This film was such a delight to work on, inspiring at every turn (well, at least until everything starts falling apart... no spoilers!)
Here's a Fancy favorite that should be on your family's short list for the holidays! Never more relevant, "Fake Famous" documents how influencers gain followers and power. Also, the film shows the emotional toll it takes on them and what it tells us about social media in general. The team handled sound and color for this one. Don't miss it on HBO!
Fancy holiday party was 🔥🔥 We ate tamales🌽 drank eggnog 🥚 and Tony and Justin even broke the 4th wall 🖼️! It was so nice to see everyone and gather around the bonfire. Happy Holidays!! 🎄🎅
It's Christmas time, and who doesn't want to snuggle up with some schmaltz? 🎄🎭 We loved working on the “Days of our Lives” Christmas special, which enchants even if you're not a devotee of the show. Why not subscribe to Paramount+ and relax into the drama? Sound, Picture, Deliverables by Fancy 🎞️

Take "Won't You Be My Neighbor," which cut here and went on to be the top grossing documentary of 2018 - winning a string of awards along the way.
When you edit a project, you dive into that world for months at a time. What fun to spend all that time with Mr. Rogers. We were all jealous, but the film was so ridiculously good we had to forgive the team at Tremolo Productions
This holiday we are thankful for the uber-talented, hardworking team at Fancy - pictured here breaking (Bill‘s homemade) bread last week at the company potluck 🥖🍗 Those who couldn’t make it in person were with us in spirit. Happy Thanksgiving!! 🦃🥂
It was a delight to work on this piece for PBS titled “Brave Girl”. The short follows 6-year old Bennett, a very strong young adventurer who is just beginning her journey of finding out what it takes to climb the tallest and smallest mountains 👧🗻 Created by Mark Pedri and Carrie McCarthy of Burning Torch Productions, it is available now on YouTube:

So much fun and such an honor to work on the new 4K Director’s Cut of “Going All the Way” with Mark Todd Osborne and Oscilloscope Laboratories 📽️✨ Featuring 50 minutes of unseen footage, “this definitive edition of the film feels like a completely different, more character-driven and psychologically complex vision,” according to director Mark Pellington.

Premiering tonight on Showtime Networks and available for streaming, “Spector” takes a look at the dark and disturbing story of the millionaire music mogul’s gruesome 2003 murder of Lana Clarkson. Taking Clarkson’s death and Phil Spector’s subsequent trial and conviction as its focal point, “Spector” meticulously recreates the fateful night that brought the two of them together — as Spector had met Clarkson only hours before her death from a gunshot to the face.
Out today on Apple TV, “My Mind and Me” has been 6 years in the making. The documentary, directed by Alek Keshishian, takes a profoundly sad and surprisingly raw look at Selena Gomez's life in that time, a period she is admittedly “grateful to be on the other side” of.
