Editor James Norris has joined London post company Nomad, also becoming a partner at the shop.
A self-taught, natural editor, Norris started out running for the likes of Working Title, Partizan and Tomboy Films. He then moved to the Whitehouse as an assistant where he refined his craft and rose through the ranks to become an editor.
Over the last 15 years he’s worked across commercials, music videos, features and television. He edited IKEA’s “Fly Robot Fly” campaign, Asda’s “Get Possessed,” and has recently cut a new piece of work for Nike. Working within television and film, he also cut an episode of the BAFTA-nominated drama Our World War and feature film We Are Monster.
Norris said, “I was attracted to Nomad for their vision for the future and their dedication to the craft of editing. They have a wonderful history but are also so forward thinking and want to create new, exciting things. The New York and LA offices have seen incredible success over the last few years and now there’s Tokyo and London too.”
