Editorial boutique Cutters has promoted David Rubin to editor.
Rubin landed an internship with Cutters immediately upon graduating from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, leading to a position as assistant editor, mainly working for managing editor Grant Gustafson. Among many highlights of these creative collaborations over the years, Rubin assisted on Jeep’s award-winning “Groundhog Day” Super Bowl spot, and numerous campaigns for Energy BBDO, FCB, Highdive, Leo Burnett, mcgarrybowen, and their clientele. Rubin has also taken the lead in editing several projects including recent spots for Glad via FCB, and for Hillshire Farms via Ogilvy.
Rubin was the International Grand Prize Winner in Editing in 2015’s Camp Kuleshov competition, AICE’s (now AICP’s) annual contest for assistant editors, audio mixers and graphic designers. He is also a two-time winner of top editing honors at Camp Kuleshov Chicago.
According to Highdive Advertising’s co-founder and creative director Chad Broude, “At Highdive, we don’t look for editors–we look for creatives and problem solvers that make the final product even better… and they just happen to edit. That’s why we love working with David. He’s like having another writer on the project who’s improving the work through the finish line.”
