Roger Barton began his editorial career working on documentaries and made-for-TV movies including the Emmy award-winning "Indictment: The McMartin Trial." He soon made the transition to motion pictures and in 1997 was an Associate Editor on the decade's biggest blockbuster, "Titanic."He quickly moved up the ladder, honing his skills at Jerry Bruckheimer Films on "Armageddon" and "Gone in 60 Seconds." Since then, Barton has worked with Michael Bay on "Pearl Harbor," "Bad Boys 2," the Platinum Dunes release, "Amityville Horror," "The Island," and the last five "Transformers" films.During his career, Roger has cut for Hollywood's leading filmmakers such as George Lucas on "Star Wars: Episode III", the Wachowski Brothers' "Speed Racer", Jim Sheridan's "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" and two films for Director Joe Carnahan, "The Grey" and "The A-Team."Beginning in 2013, Roger edited three films for Skydance Entertainment, "G.I. Joe: Retaliation," "World War Z," and "Terminator: Genesis." In 2016 Roger returned to work with Jerry Bruckheimer on Walt Disney's "Pirates of the Caribbean, Dead Men Tell No Tales."In the summer of 2017, Roger began editing "Godzilla: King of Monsters" for Legendary Pictures but left when he became Co-Founder of Evercast -- a creative collaboration platform that he felt had the potential to one day transform Hollywood workflows, enabling filmmakers to collaborate remotely, creating greater efficiency resulting in cost savings and a better work-life balance. Little did he know that three years later a global pandemic would sweep through Hollywood, shutting down production and accelerating Evercast's adoption which is now the "go-to" Emmy award-winning collaboration platform for creatives in filmmaking, gaming, and much more.From 2017 until 2021, as Roger continued to help grow and innovate Evercast's platform, he also continued to edit -- helping John Krasinski turn his 17 million dollar genre thriller "A Quiet Place" into a 334 million summer blockbuster, worked with Michael Bay and Skydance again with Netflix's "6 Underground", and Chris McKay & Chris Pratt's "Tomorrow War", his fifth feature with David Ellison and Skydance.Roger currently works for Walt Disney Studios as an Editorial Creative Consultant.
