Integrated creative studio Consulate has brought Trevor Undi on board as an editor in its New York office. This marks the first time that the filmmaker has been repped editorially.
Undi is a British/Canadian/Zambian director and editor. His experience on television series and features inform his approach to the edit suite. Years spent in the cutting rooms of large-scale studio features enabled him to absorb every aspect of postproduction, including visual effects. He now brings this depth of understanding of the process and his comprehensive knowledge of narrative filmmaking to Consulate.
Over the course of his career, Undi has collaborated on projects alongside a variety of celebrated producers, directors, and actors, including Keanu Reeves, Will Smith, Jennifer Connelly, John Cleese, and Wesley Snipes (in the production of the Blade series). Undi worked under the leadership of Wayne Wahrman, editor of I am Legend and Constantine, and apprenticed with director Scott Derrickson, of Dr. Strange and Sinister fame. Undi has worked on projects at numerous studios and networks including Warner Bros., Sony Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Paramount, Disney, DreamWorks, and NBC/Universal.
In advertising, Undi has partnered with a variety of international brands on broadcast and digital campaigns, such as Estée Lauder, Tiffany & Co., NARS Cosmetics, Shiseido, Disney, Coach, Balenciaga, and The New York City Ballet, among many others.
Undi said of his new colleagues at Consulate, “It’s great to be a part of such a progressive and diverse group of creatives. Postproduction is at the heart of my background as a filmmaker and one that I am very passionate about.”
“Trevor has an amazing talent for evocative, emotive editing,” said Chad Sipkin, founder/editor at Consulate. “He creates a strong visual language through pace, tone, and mood.”
As a director, Undi is represented by Art Department in the U.S., Fresh Film in the U.K., Europe, and Southeast Asia, and Toboggan, Inc. in Japan.
