Hello!!
I'm Kathleen 'Kat' McAuley
...a Los Angeles/Hybrid NYC based Film and Television Editor.
My passion is protest art:
art that can make a social and political impact in our society through film and television.
Take a scroll and get to know me!
+++++
​
I've enjoyed a career as a Post professional for over a decade. My career has spanned reality, marketing, and scripted television and film. Recently, I made the jump to Union editor, and just completed my first scripted series, along with two feature films.
I initially explored careers in law and finance, before choosing my passion for film. I truly believe that my background gives me a unique creative perspective, as I often call on my real world experiences in the editing room.
I've had a long commitment to diversity and inclusion, starting from my days at Bowdoin College, to my activism for inclusion in Black In Post, ACE’s Mentorship program, and MPEG's Diversity Committee. I've spun off to create a bi-yearly class to mentor the next generation of diverse editors and assistant: The D&I Hallway to Post Inclusion.
