Originally from Syracuse, NY, Evan Schiff started his career in the film industry at the age of 16, between his junior and senior years of high school, with an internship at Legacy EFX (formerly Stan Winston Studio). After graduating from high school and being accepted into USC's film production program, SWS hired Schiff back to do tech support as their systems administrator. He worked there part-time for all four years of college and full-time for one year after, in the process helping to set up their visual effects department, SW Digital, as well as giving a hand anywhere he could. It's a place where you can wear as many hats as you want to fit on your head, and one of Schiff's favourite "not in my job description" tasks he volunteered for was to help solder multicolour LEDs into and then assemble a robot head for A.I. - Artificial Intelligence.  During college, though, Schiff got bit by the editing bug. He found that, even more than creature or visual effects, Schiff loved sitting in the editing bay for hours on end putting his student films together. So a year after college, and five years after starting his job at Stan Winston's, Schiff left to pursue editing full-time. It was slow at first, but through some family connections, friends he made at SWS, and a bit of luck, Schiff got his first few jobs as an assistant editor, and things have taken off from there.
