    LOS ANGELES --

    Work Editorial has added editor Lucian Barnard to its roster of postproduction talent.

    Barnard began his career editing movies and documentaries but was drawn to the samurai-like discipline and methodology of editing commercials and other short-form films.

    Barnard was awarded the Golden Horn for Best Achievement in Editing of a Feature Film at the SAFTAs (South African Film and Television Awards) for his work cutting the suspense drama Griekwastad, which dramatized the true story of an infamous crime in the small country town. He also edited the Netflix thriller I Am All Girls and Moritz Mohr’s action-packed Boy Kills World starring Bill Skarsgård, produced by Sam Raimi and distributed by Lionsgate. Google Chrome called upon Barnard’s musical sensibilities to edit the Clio award-winning spot featuring racer Lando Norris and rappers Lil Yachty and Busta Rhymes rapping as fast as an F1 engine. Other commercial campaigns edited by Barnard were for brand such as Gymshark, Pringles, Nivea Men, Honda, Asics, and Levi’s, among many others.

    “Being accepted into the ranks of editors I have admired for quite some time feels amazing,” remarked Barnard. “Work Editorial operates from a truthful, caring, kind, and positive space. Upon meeting the entire team, I remember feeling as if I was walking into a large family gathering. This, to me, is the most important quality of Work Editorial. Not only that, but they are the best of the best. I’m excited to get started!”

    Jane Dilworth, founding partner of Work Editorial, added, “Lucian’s work is fantastic, incredibly skillful with such an infectious energy that lifts your spirits. He’s also a delight to work with and an extraordinary talent.”

    Gloria Colangelo joins Identity as managing partner

    Wednesday, November 20, 2024

    Production company Identity has brought Gloria Colangelo on board as managing partner.

    Having spent decades in the production industry in senior roles, including a lengthy tenure as executive producer at companies Assembly and MacGuffin Films, Colangelo brings a wealth of experience to her new position at Identity, which marks a professional evolution of her own. “After an incredibly fulfilling career, I reached a point where I was ready to take on a new challenge and pursue a longtime goal of becoming a partner--playing a more direct role in shaping a company’s vision, fostering talent, and driving meaningful growth,” she said.

    As managing partner at Identity, Colangelo effectively reunites with former colleague, EP Molly Mitchell, and assumes a more hands-on role in shaping the company’s vision and trajectory. “Molly and I are deeply involved,” said Colangelo, “in every aspect of production, from sales and bidding to overseeing shoots and wrapping jobs. This approach feels natural to me, as I’ve always thrived in a role where I’m engaged in all stages of the process. I’m also extremely grateful for the opportunity to be working with owner/EP Joe Masi, someone who I’d admired from afar, and having the support of his belief in our vision.”

    Along with her day-to-day operations, Colangelo is also playing a pivotal role in bolstering Identity’s already strong roster of directing talent. For the new managing partner, however, it’s important that connecting new and existing storytellers occur rather naturally. “I didn’t come to Identity with a set roster,” she explained. “Instead, as I made the decision to embark on this new journey, a few directors I’d worked closely with expressed a strong interest in joining...
