Cliff's employment experience has taken him across the globe. Prior to moving to the United States, Cliff trained and worked ten years 
at the BBC in England, where he was responsible for editing nationally broadcast TV shows, such as: weekly magazine style series, full 
length documentaries, special features, music specials and comedy series. Shortly after becoming the youngest editor in the history 
of the BBC, Cliff was honored for his contributions to the British network TV series "The Clothes Show", as part of the small editing 
team that was awarded the national BAFTA for "Best Videotape Editor" " from the British Academy of Film & Television Arts.   

In 1994 Cliff relocated from England to the United States, taking a new position as Senior Editor at VT2 Studios, the company formally 
known as VT/TV Graphics & Post. His responsibility was to head editing operations and creative for this small, yet highly respected 
editing and graphic design boutique. His client list quickly grew and included advertising agencies, independent program producers, 
and major corporations. In 2001, he was promoted and took on a management role as General Manager. Even with his leadership and 
management responsibilities, Cliff insisted on keeping in touch with his creative roots and enjoyed editing for his top clients. His editing 
work continued to win awards and has been recognized with several regional ADDYs, National Tellies and an Emmy.          
  
In early 2009 Cliff resigned his position at VT2 to pursue his creative interests and open his own post production company 
"Cliff Davis Editorial". In early 2010 he moved his operations to a new location inside "Image Recourses Group", an established local 
production company housed in the Marathon Building in the Houston Galleria area. Although remaining independent, this arrangement 
allowed Cliff Davis Editorial to offer his clients a host of creative production and post production services in a professional, creative 
and fun enviroment.

Cliff attributes his 25 years of professional success to a philosophy of integrity, respect, personal responsibility and very high standards 
of creative and technical execution. He is indeed a rare breed, very creative, bringing many ideas to his projects, but also very organized 
and works well under extreme pressure. If you have a tight deadline or perhaps are working towards a live broadcast, you will find Cliff's 
experience, technical knowledge and calm demeaner to be a welcome relief. You will always be in good hands.

No matter the size or type of project, Cliff listens first to his client, then only once his client's goals are fully understood, does he 
focus on the creative process - ensuring a strong, clear message with maximum creative impact. Whether working alone, beside 
a client or collaborating with a team of designers, creativity is always paramount.

Cliff uses both Avid and Final Cut Pro edit systems, and Symphony or Apple Color for color grading. He also speaks and understands 
Spanish, and although not fluent, he has dedicated years to studying Spanish, including an immersion program at the Kukulcan
language school in Cuernavaca, Mexico. Cliff has no problem and in fact, get an enourmous satisfaction editing Spanish language 
programs.
