Editor Raj Ramnauth has joined the roster of Nomad Editing Company for U.S. representation.
Ramnauth is well-known for his music videos, including “Life is Good” and “God’s Plan” with Drake and “Con Altura” by Rosalia. Ramnauth has also worked on film and brand projects, ranging from Jason Day’s short documentary Never Say Die to campaigns for Budweiser and the Hockey Diversity Alliance, “Tape Out Hate”. Since joining Nomad, Ramnauth has edited the latest Hanes’ “The Invention of Comfort” campaign, released in early April.
“Raj’s addition to Nomad is well timed as the industry continues to blend entertainment and advertising, and he brings that in his work,” noted Nomad New York EP Julia Williams.
Nomad partner/director Glenn Martin said of Ramnaugh, “We’ve been following his career for a few years and have witnessed the incredible growth in his talent. Raj’s music video work showcases a unique skill at connecting the visuals with the beats and rhythms of the music tracks. You see this in his commercials as well, which is why his work feels so compelling.”
Ramnauth takes a very collaborative approach to the craft and looks forward to getting involved early in conceptual development. “My style is inspired by books I read on method acting. I immerse myself in the project and get into a flow state while cutting to produce something visceral; something people feel when they watch it.” Ramnauth is also a co-founder of Toronto-based editorial company Nimiopere.
