ALIBI Music has enlisted Rab Bradlea as East Coast music supervisor. Based in New York, Bradlea will work alongside head of sync A&R Julia Trainor in Los Angeles and music director Paul Ortiz in London, ensuring round-the-clock support for ALIBI’s global clientele.
Over the past 10 years, ALIBI has steadily grown its catalog of professionally composed production music and sound effects to become a resource for content and trailer editors working in film, television, advertising and video games, among other industries. Bradlea, who had actually been an ALIBI client himself, brings both a valuable perspective and familiarity with the catalog to his new role.
Bradlea had spent close to a decade in video production and editing prior to joining ALIBI. Most recently, he was a freelance producer/video editor working extensively on short films, trailers, TV spots, sales reels, podcasts and web content, projects for which he also provided music supervision. One such documentary short, Little Measures, premiered at Cannes 2021. Bradlea had previously produced, edited and written nationally televised TV and film trailers for Vibe Creative and Open Road Entertainment. He got his start as a video editor for Rabble Rouser Media after graduating from Boston University with a dual Bachelor of Arts degree in Film and Television and English.
“ALIBI has actually had the pleasure of working with Rab Bradlea on a freelance level for some time (he cut our first reel!), so we’re super excited to have him onboard officially,” said Jonathan Parks, ALIBI’s founder and executive producer. “Given his background, he is ideally positioned to expand the versatile talents within our team.”
