    From splicejones.com"Alex Splice Jones grew up in the greater Chicagoland area where he developed his love for film and crafting stories. From a young age the art of storytelling and filmmaking fueled him to create his own projects and help others realize theirs. Being the youngest of six children, Alex has always naturally been very inquisitive and observant —often drawn to unique stories that aren't necessarily the loudest. In 2006 he attended Columbia College of Chicago where he received a BA in Video Editing. https://splicejones.com/https://blog.frame.io/2021/02/25/diversity-in-post-production/
