Douglas Darlington, Editor
Doug has spent over 20 years in the film and
television industry as Assistant Director
on direct-to-video features as well as an
Editor for longstanding corporate and broadcast
clients garnering numerous awards for his
corporate and commercial productions. Proficient
in both linear and non-linear editing systems,
his credits have included works for the Golf
Channel, HBO and most recently MTV and VH-1 on the Hogan
Knows Best, Tiara Girls and My Big
Fat Fabulous Wedding reality show series.
He is also a director of live concerts including
acts such as Ludikris and The Commodores and has served
as Segment Producer for the Oprah! show.
The
stunning female vocalist on these arrangements
is Andrea Kramer. Raised in Portland,
Maine for most of her life, Andrea Kramer has
made Florida her home for the last 15 years. Andrea
has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Historical Studies.
It was there she met her husband of 8 years, Ryan.
Andrea became music pastor at the age of twenty-three
and has produced two original worship albums composing
over two hundred worship songs.
Andrea has led worship for women’s conferences
around the state and the nation. She has also
been invited to sing at motivational and political
events including those for Zig Ziglar and Mayor
Rudy Giuliani. Although, her greatest accomplishment
by far is being mother to Jeremiah (3), Jordan
(2), and Journey.
Andrea was 8 months into her pregnancy with Journey when we recorded her voice at Whitewater Recording Studios. Since then, Journey has been welcomed into this world with warm loving arms. Special thanks go out to Andrea for “delivering” a magical touch to this project.
