Editor Jordan Green joined New York-based design and editorial company 89 Greene Editorial after spending the past year freelancing in New York. Before that, he spent two-and-a-half years as an editor at Spot Welders, Venice, Calif..
Green brings about seven years of commercial, music video and documentary experience to 89 Greene. The editor said he tends to attract a variety of styles, although he especially enjoys comedy as well as projects that are artistic, offbeat and edgy.
As a freelancer, he recently edited Blimpie’s "Home Video" spot for Kirshenbaum Bond & Partners, New York. Harvey Wang of Hollywood, Calif.-based Stiefel & Company directed. Green also cut a corporate video for Sony directed by Tarquin Cardona of bicoastal X-Ray Productions.
Following the Cardona-directed project, Green was introduced to 89 Greene through bicoastal Crossroads Films, which maintains an additional office in Chicago. (Crossroads family of companies consists of Crossroads Films, bicoastal Crossroads Television, X-Ray Productions, bicoastal X-1 Films and 89 Greene Editorial.) "I like [89 Greene’s] creative atmosphere," Greene enthused. "I feel like I fit in with the stable of editors. I’m comfortable here."
Green’s first 89 Greene editing assignment is a campaign for WPVI, Philadelphia, directed by X-Ray’s Glenn Lazzaro through the Crossroads Television unit.
Notable work that Green cut while at Spot Welders includes GTE’s "Duh TV" campaign out of Ogilvy & Mather, New York. He also cut Titleist’s "HP Tour" via Boston-based Arnold Communications, and Nike’s "Owners" campaign, out of Wieden & Kennedy, Amsterdam. He additionally edited music videos for Garbage, the Goo Goo Dolls, Fun Luvin Criminals, INXS and UB40.
Green joins an editorial roster comprised of Bruce Ashley, Tim Cahill, and Don Kleszy; designers Steve Marino and Jim Forster; and online editor/compositor Michael Coalo.
