Flávia de Souza, Editor:

Carolina Williams, Editor’s Assistant: Carolina has her BA in Communications and worked in video production for 7 years in Albany, NY. Her background is in training videos, public service announcements, and commercials. After moving to New York City in 2007, she freelanced as a production assistant on several projects. Her experience is in all facets of production including scripting, camera, and editing; however, her interest in editing brought her to New York and eventually to be a member of the Point Made team.
Lindsey Boullt, Composer: First picking up the guitar at 21 years old, Lindsey received his music degree at the University of Texas-Arlington three and a half years later and then graduated with honors from the Guitar Institute of Technology in Hollywood, California at the age of 27. His experience has spanned the range and geography of musical genre—from NYC’s late 80’s hardcore-metal scene to Texas guitar cultures, jazz-world fusion, and the musical avant-garde theater of San Francisco.
Now an established guitarist, composer and instructor in San Francisco and working with some of the finest players in the world, Lindsey teaches at the renowned Guitar Institute of Technology. In June of 2007, he released the 10-song original work, “Composition�? which is currently receiving critical acclaim. In this work, he demonstrates his ability to musically communicate how culture, chaos, and the reverence for odd time can be organized into precision and power.
Lindsey has long established a legacy of composing artistic representations of people in his life as well as creating works with the instrumentalist or artist in mind. Lindsey translates this ability into devouring the aspects of a character and creating that character’s essence into musical sound whilst also capturing their humanity and personal journey.
