Ron Harris has joined Broadway Video as Vice President of Sales and Marketing. Harris, who brings more than 25 years of experience in the post production industry, will oversee sales for Broadway Video‘s edit and sound divisions, and will seek both to strengthen current client relationships and help the company move into new areas. Harris most recently headed sales for the New York office of L.A. Digital Post.
A native New Yorker, Harris said that he has been an admirer of Broadway Video for more than two decades. “It’s always had a certain panache… and a great location in the historic Brill Building,” he said. “I feel energized walking down the hall.”
“The facility is very busy right now and is poised to have a great year,” he added. Harris said that he sees great potential to build on Broadway Video‘s success in broadcast media as well as to expand its reach further into advertising. “We’ve got a really deep talent pool covering every aspect of post,” he observed. “We are a full service facility—there is nothing that a producer needs that we can’t deliver.”
Harris began his career as an editor, including a long stint as Senior Editor at National Video Center in New York. He continues to produce, direct and edit broadcast and corporate projects, and says his hands-on experience allows him to help his clients better plan for post.
Harris’ background also includes senior sales positions with National Video Center, Rhinoceros, Image Group Post and LA Digital Post—all in New York.

“Ǝvolution” Comes Full Circle At The Chelsea Film Festival
The Chelsea Film Festival, running from October 16th through October 20th, 2024, at Regal Cinemas here in Union Square, is set to host the East Coast premiere of Ǝvolution, a thought-provoking experimental micro-short film that proves big ideas can come in small packages and in perfect circles.
In just 1 minute 16 seconds, this cinematic gem by Award-Winning Director Romina Schwedler, with original music by Argentine Composer Ignacio Montoya Carlotto, explores a cycle as old as time: life leads to progress, progress leads to destruction, and destruction, well, leads back to life. But is this vicious circle unbreakable? Ǝvolution suggests the answer is yes, unless we decide to open our eyes.
Inspired by the overwhelming number of recent events that threaten human existence, Ǝvolution, possibly the shortest film in this 12th edition of the festival, plays out entirely through the symbolism of circles, cleverly illustrating —in the blink of an eye— the repeating patterns of history, and confronting viewers with the uncomfortable truth that our so-called “progress” may, in fact, be guiding us to our own ruin.Premiering at the Regal 14 Union Square, New York City, on October 18, 2024, at 11 a.m., Romina Schwedler's micro-short, featuring Leah Young with cinematography by Alan J. Carmona, will be sure to spark conversations longer than the film itself! Forcing viewers to reconsider the true meaning of evolution, not just as a biological process, but as a reflection of our collective journey as humans.
With a string of festival appearances across the globe, including CineGlobe at CERN (Switzerland/France), Oscar®... Read More
