Greenpoint Pictures, which maintains offices in Brooklyn and L.A., has signed directing duo The Roos Brothers for representation in the U.S. Logan Roos had been directing solo on the Greenpoint roster since 2014–after serving as a DP and editor at the company. Over the last year, Logan and brother Josh have come together as a directorial team, now landing at Greenpoint as their first production company roost. Their work spans short films, branded series and broadcast spots.
The duo’s differing backgrounds form a natural one-two punch–Logan’s roots in cinematography and editing brings a trademark look to their work, while Josh calls upon his background in writing and visual design to strengthen each story they craft.
The Roos Brothers have completed numerous short films–––including Vimeo Staff Pick aRm1–––which have been recognized with multiple Webby Award nominations. Their commercial series for Rocky Mountain Health was also honored by the Webby Awards and was an official 2018 Brand Film Fest selection. They have worked with brand clients including Nike, Adidas, Reebok, Coca-Cola, and the NHL.
Michael Kuhn, Greenpoint Pictures’ founding partner, said, “Logan and Josh are family. We’ve known each other for years and have worked together in one capacity or another for quite some time. Every time I watch a new piece of theirs, I’m moved.” Kuhn described the Roos Brothers as the industry’s “best-kept secret.”
Josh Roos related, “We’re already deep into some exciting projects, so it’s a fantastic start.” Logan Roos added, “I’ve been a part of the Greenpoint crew for years and we have made some amazing work together. We’re looking forward to this new and exciting chapter together as The Roos Brothers.”
