Cheers! My name is
Derek Grote. Welcome to my new site! I've been making movies and music since I was little, and want this blog to serve as a place to present some of my work to you. Recently, I've been involved with a rock band,
The Protesters, and working on a few screenplays as well. However, this site will mostly consist of my own film, editing, and soundtrack work. I also act occasionally and even hosted a local public access review show, "In Case You Missed It". I'm a graduate of
The Recording Workshop of Ohio and have contributed music to local film soundtracks. I've also helped out on the set as a boom mic operator on a few of my friend's productions. Currently, I work as a projectionist at a local movie theater, learning the old school method of splicing and editing film. I hope you enjoy my work!
