Los Angeles-based postproduction house Ethos Studio, under the aegis of founder/exec producer James Drew, has established an official roster of editors, colorists, and a sound mixer. While Ethos has always had a group of artists that they work with, this represents the first time the company is listing a traditional directory of names on its website. Brand new additions to the roster include editor Brian Raess, colorist Dante Pasquinelli, and music producer Loz. They join colorist Kaitlyn Battistelli, editors Chad Sarahina and Patrick Moccia, who have all been with Ethos since its founding in 2019 and have been integral to the development of the company. All three roster additions have turned out work for a variety of brands and clients. Pasquinelli’s credits span clients such as Gucci, Armani, Lanvin, and Fendi, with celebrities like Billie Eilish, LeBron James, and Kendall Jenner. Raess frequently works with major directing and creative talent on animated and live-action music videos and commercials. He has also worked in development on several feature films for Disney, Netflix, Universal, Nickelodeon, Mythos Studios, and Paramount. Raess previously worked with Drew at Electric Theatre Collective. London-born music producer Loz has worked with artists like The Weeknd and Bad Bunny and brands such as Lululemon, Nike, Vulture Magazine, and New Balance…..
Director Cassandra Brooksbank Joins Monument Content For Spots and Branded Content
Monument Content has signed director Cassandra “Cassie” Brooksbank for U.S. representation spanning commercials and branded content. She brings to her directing and storytelling the experience and skills of a writer, conceptual artist, editor and visual effects artist.
Her body of work as a director includes Pepsi’s “Selfie” featuring Lionel Messi amid a flurry of fans, Barclays madcap women’s Soccer League spot where she collaborated closely with the agency to develop the creative, ultimately winning the Grand Jury Prize at the Sports Industry Awards, and a grass-roots campaign for Fellow Coffee. The latter just didn’t brew buzz; it helped raise $1.2 million on Kickstarter.
Prior to joining Monument Content, Brooksbank had been repped in the U.S. for commercials by production house Hey Wonderful.
On the long-form front, she is repped by CAA for film and television. And on the horizon is her debut feature, My Masterpiece, produced by Sylvester Stallone’s Balboa Productions and backed by Amazon.
