Creative editorial and postproduction company Final Cut has named Rebecca Mitchell as head of production at its office in L.A. Mitchell will bring more than a decade’s experience as a sr. producer and post supervisor to her new role at Final Cut, having worked in a wide variety of content and formats with clients as diverse as Apple, Salesforce, the NFL, eBay, Fitbit, and Stitch Fix.
Mitchell honed her skills as a post-producer at Nice Shoes in New York. There she spent nearly 10 years working her way up from cruise director (a client-liaison role) to sr. producer. Throughout her tenure at Nice Shoes, Mitchell grew with the company as it evolved from a color and finishing house to a full-service studio, mastering each discipline along the way and finally producing projects and connecting workflows from start to finish.
Since her relocation from New York to L.A. in 2019, Rebecca has managed postproduction for A+E Networks and freelanced at Company 3, The Den Editorial, Cabin Editing, Harbor Picture Company, Nice Shoes, Art Class, and Final Cut in roles as focused as color correction services or as comprehensive as overseeing projects from concept to completion.
“In a highly collaborative profession where late nights and demanding projects are standard, it’s paramount to work with people you genuinely harmonize with,” said Mitchell. “I was fortunate to freelance at Final Cut before coming on board full-time. I’m extremely impressed by the culture here, the high level of cooperation among producers, and the caliber of work Final Cut produces.”
“The driving forces behind Final Cut are collaboration and craft,” said Final Cut’s L.A. executive producer, Suzy Ramirez. “Rebecca has demonstrated her facility and deep respect for both of those core tenets through her work with Final Cut and beyond. She’s a talented mind and a creative spirit.”
