Andre Alexander Jones (Dre Jones) was born September 7, 1986, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He is the third child of four brothers. He started his editing career by enrolling at an underprivileged youth opportunity program called the "Youth Opportunity Center" in North Philadelphia now know as the “E3 Power Center”. The program offered free film and video production training to the registered youth at the program. Andre was always an artist being creative in many aspects of his life, therefore he enrolled in the class. After the first day, he was hooked. He spent many days, weeks and months as his interest in the video production grew larger. What started as a hobby has now translated into a working profession for him. He was able to travel out of the country and to many other places to teach, work and enjoy the life of a filmmaker. Through the years, hard work, dedication, determination and faith led him to Los Angeles, California. He has then edited six independent feature films, tons of music videos and various reality shows. Andre is now living him dream as a Hollywood film/video editor in Los Angeles, CA.
