 About Michael Krulik
Michael started working with and presenting non-linear technology with the first PC editing system: the EMC2 from Editing Machines Corporation, after getting his start in the early days of Computer Graphics. As Non-linear technology evolved, he used, demonstrated and trained on Media 100, Panasonic’s PostBox, Softimage DS and, of course, Avid Media/Film Composer.
For over 25 years, Michael has worked with the Film, Television and Broadcast industry and has devoted most of his career to working with manufacturers of cutting edge technology. He works with the American Cinema Editors and moderated several panels with top TV and Film editors at ACE's EditFestLA as well as presenting technologies at NAB, IBC, SuperMeet, SMPTE, DCS, LACPUG and other trade shows and industry events.
Over the years, he has had the opportunity to use his editing skills on PSAs and more independent type features such as Ernest Borgnine: On the Bus, I Created Lancelot Link and Strip Notes, a film by Daryl Hannah as she researched nightclubs for one of her film roles.
And he not only works with editors, but he has even played one on TV. He played the editor of the late Sydney Pollack in the episode of Entourage, “No Cannes Do”.

Metro Red Line
Yes, Los Angeles has a subway and if possible you ought to use it. Riders are dropped of at Sunset and Vermont and then it is a walk of several blocks and uphill to get to the Theatre. The Park has a gated stairway ending at Barnsdall Ave, just behind the strip mall. It's the only access point from this side, but it is often locked. There is long, tree-shaded stairway leading from Hollywood Blvd to the Gallery Theatre and this area is sometimes shared with a homeless population. The best route for people who use mobility devices is the sidewalk along the Barnsdall Park road access. More info on the Red Line can be found here.
PARKING: Parking is FREE. There is ample parking on top of hill near the Art Park. Parking extends around the perimeter of the Park. NOTE: Please park your car diagonally even though the spaces are not marked that way. If there are no spaces to park at top, then use parking lot at bottom of hill near Hollywood Blvd. Click HERE to download a PDF(300K) of the grounds that points out the parking areas and includes other helpful hints.
