Rock Paper Scissors has added editor Gaia Borretti to its roster for representation in the U.S. Borretti continues to be represented by The Assembly Rooms for commercials, music videos and film in the U.K. and Europe.
Borretti is known for stylistically-forward edits that effortlessly employ a rhythmic technical acumen. She is a frequent collaborator with director Ian Pons Jewell and most recently Vince Haycock and Agustin Alberdi. Her latest collaboration with Pons Jewell was for Facebook Oculus, delivering an epic three-minute film titled “First Steps,” which was co-created between an in-house creative team at Facebook and TBWAChiatDay NY. Other projects include Nike’s “Further than Ever” with Wieden + Kennedy, Shanghai, as well as work for BBC 3 and the German brand Zalando.
Originally from Rome, Borretti considers herself a global citizen having spent time across the world in the service of film. Originally a classically trained musician, her introduction to the film industry began with assisting Italian film editor Jacopo Quadri. In 2018, her work on the feature-length documentary, To the Wildlands and Back, for Ubisoft’s Ghost Recon video game franchise garnered her multiple awards, including a D&AD Pencil, and a Cannes Lion in the festival’s Entertainment category.
