Moesch’s most recent project “HISS,” rapper Megan Thee Stallion’s latest music video, made waves in the industry garnering a #1 spot in the YouTube and iTunes chart upon its release. His previous work “Inside The Blind Iris,” a short film with Botis Seva and the dance group “Far From the Norm,” was selected for La Biennale di Venezia and won Gold for cinematography at the 2023 CICLOPE Festival. His awards cabinet includes a Silver Cannes Lion, Grand Clio, Grand Prix at CICLOPE Latino, Best Narrative at the Berlin Music Video Festival, and Best Music Video at the 2022 Shark Awards for his work on the music video and short film “Sonho” by Nego Bala. Moesch was also nominated for Best Editing at the AICP Post Awards 2022, CICLOPE 2022, and MVF 2022.
BANDIT executive producer Laura Relovsky noted, “It was quickly clear to me and the rest of the team that his stellar acumen cutting commercials, music videos and films made Lucas a perfect fit at BANDIT. We can’t wait to watch him grow and lend his editing craft expertise to our top brand clients.”
Moesch added, “Joining BANDIT’s roster fills me with genuine excitement and eagerness to be part of such an extraordinary team. I was drawn to their relentless focus on prioritizing the artist and making sure the client gets what they want. I am deeply committed to making a significant impact and appreciate the warm welcome I’ve received.”
After graduating in cinema from PUC-RS in Brazil with a specialization in expanded media, Moesch began his journey in editing as an assistant editor at Zeppelin Filmes in São Paulo.
