I constructed the story from interviews and vérité and also cut the initial rough edits from which the final documentary was sculpted. While a good deal of the foundation I laid remains intact, several editors worked on this film.

This film was selected for the 2022 Tribeca Film Festival and is currently streaming on Paramount+ as an MTV Documentary Film.

I always love editing music videos, especially in collaboration with director Elena Vazintaris.

In this video, country music star Jennifer Nettles lends her soaring, versatile voice to a Rodgers and Hammerstein classic on her latest release, a rendition of Oklahoma!’s “Oh, What A Beautiful Mornin’.” The song is featured on Nettles’ newest album, a 10-song, musical theatre-themed project Always Like New, released via Concord Records. 

Regina co-edited the anthem and assisted Marc Thomas on a series of Black History videos for Facebook’s Instagram.
