Connected as Andy Cockrum (320 friends)

With nearly 20 years of experience in the film and television industry, I have worked as a cameraman, editor and special effects compositor on a vast array of projects for local, national, and international clients. In addition to my own film projects, I have worked in editorial and visual effects for several Robert Rodriguez films, including "Spy Kids 2," "Spy Kids 3D" and "Sin City." In 2007, I completed three documentary films, including "Team Everest: A Himalayan Journey," "The Monkey Project" and most recently, "Swim," a film I co-directed with the production team of Hazard Pay Productions.

"Team Everest: A Himalayan Journey" premiered at the Seattle International Film Festival and screened at festivals and special engagements around the world, including the Austin Film Festival and the Rubin Museum of Art in Manhattan. Both "Team Everest" and "Swim" are currently showing on the Documentary Channel here in the U.S.
