Having worked with many talented directors including Peyton Reed (Bring it On), Robert Rodriguez (Desperado), Jan De Bont (Speed), Brett Ratner (Rush Hour), and Doug Liman (The Bourne franchise), Erik C. Andersen learned the craft of editing by working with the masters. He found early success when he won an Emmy cutting A Community Of Caring - Joe for the American Heart Association. That success has followed Andersen throughout his career with the projects he edited, winning over 100 prestigious awards for their directors. Early in his career, Erik helped introduce one of the first computer-based editing systems, Lightworks, to the film industry. These systems have revolutionized the way editors cut today. Since then he helped pioneer post production workflows on films like How High, the first HD movie for Universal which was shot on the F900 Panavision/Sony 24p Camera, Killer Pad shot on the Viper using the tapeless D.Mag, and Locker 13 shot on the Red Camera. Erik is currently working with Fox to help establish a workflow for the Sony XD-Cam F800 (recording onto blu-ray disk) using Avid AMA. Along with Paul Hirsch, Stuart Bass and others, Andersen authored the book ”Transitions - Voices on the Craft of Digital Editing”. Andersen has honed his craft to the point that one director commented, "Erik was the best investment I made on my film."  Based in Los Angeles, Erik is available for work worldwide.

Irit Raz was born to be an editor. Her gift is to visualize the whole out of many disparate parts. She thrives on putting things together. By using different periods, mixing styles and varying the pace, Irit final products feel seamlessly organic. A chance encounter with Menachem Golan gave Raz her first feature assignment and an introduction to the world of international filmmaking. Her work with directors such as Sam Firstenberg, Allan Goldstein, Isaac Florentine and Steve Carver enabled Irit to develop close working relationships with her directors and presented her with the opportunity to cut action. She believes that every movie has it's own turn with a different and unique rhythm and it’s her job to discover that rhythm and create the final film from its pieces. Irit says when a film works, the audience does not notice the editing. For her, that’s the greatest compliment. Based in Los Angeles, Irit is available for work worldwide.
