Jared DuBrino was born in Connecticut, and grew up in the New England area. After high school, Jared abandoned his studies in architecture to attend the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. There he studied fine arts and photography in a studio setting, concentrating in time-based arts, including film, video, and electronic music. Due to his strong technical background, as well as his study of psychology, Jared excelled in editing and film technology, and also helped run the film processing and printing labs. While in school, there wasn't a single frame of film in his many works that he did not shoot, develop, conform, and print himself. Jared left the Museum School to move to Prague. There he worked as a fashion photographer, which eventually took him to Berlin. After a tumultuous few months in Berlin, Jared found himself back in Boston, working as the equipment manager of Boston Film / Video Foundation, where he brought the 20 year old Foundation into the digital age, engineering new non-linear editing suites. He also began teaching classes in film editing, theory and aesthetics, based on the series of lectures the filmmaker and theorist Slavko Vorkapitch held at the Museum of Modern Art in 1965. It was upon these lectures that Jared had developed his own aesthetics of cinema, and through these workshops he was able to refine his own understanding of the "language of the moving image." |
| It was there that Jared met Todd Verow and Jim Dwyer, who were working on Little Shots of Happiness. Jared became their editor, and worked together with Todd and Jim to turn the 20 plus of footage into an 83 minute film. In February of 1997, Jared triumphantly returned to Berlin with the makers of Little Shots when that film was shown at the Berlin International Film Festival. Since then Jared edited Shucking the Curve, on which he was also the assistant director. He and Todd also edited The Trouble with Perpetual Déjà Vu. He now lives in New York, where he is pursuing his own film making career.
