Noted Spot Editor Joins Growing Two-Year Old Creative Post House
NEW YORK, NY -- Cause & [Effect] Productions (http://causeffect.tv), the two-year-old creative collective led by Executive Producer Jason Zemlicka and Editor Jamie Hubbard, has added noted Editor Jason Kileen to its roster of creative talent. Kileen, who is represented by Cause & [Effect] on a non-exclusive basis, and has worked with such top commercial directors as Joe Pytka, Spike Lee and Errol Morris, represents just one facet of the company's recent growth, which includes office expansion, additional staff and new technology investments.
"Today, clients are looking to work with companies that are versatile and can do more than one thing well," Zemlicka says. "They want creative partners that can play a key roll in every step of the process. That's what Cause & [Effect] is all about. We're perhaps best known for our editorial, but our clients come to us for design, 2D/3D animation, as well as writing and directing. Adding the talents of someone like Kileen brings that much more to the creative mix here. We feel fortunate to have someone as talented as Jason on our roster."
Cause & [Effect]'s full-service approach rang true for Kileen, a multi-talented editor who is seemingly comfortable working in any genre ñ including comedy, visual effects, and dramatic story-telling.
"I'm lucky to have been able to work on a wide diversity of projects, I just love the art of editing and always wanted to work on as many projects as I could, regardless of the genre," Kileen says. "When I first met Jamie and Jason, I immediately wanted to be a part of what they were building. I appreciate Cause & [Effect]'s agile approach to the changing atmosphere of the industry."
Kileen comes to Cause & [Effect] following three years at post house PS 260, where in addition to numerous high-profile ads, he co-edited the indie film "On The Road with Judas" which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2007. Prior to PS 260, Kileen was with post house Go Robot. He began his career as an assistant at Slingshot (now known as Chemistry), Lost Planet and Crew Cuts.
"Jason has an amazing eye and an intrinsic understanding of the editing process and what needs to be done when looking at a cut," Hubbard adds. "It's something that's hard to teach, it's just a sense you have and Jason definitely has it."
Some of his best-known spot work includes ads for M&M's, IBM, Heineken, Bacardi, the NY Knicks and Morgan Stanley.
In addition to adding Kileen, Cause & [Effect] recently expanded their space taking on additional square footage inside their west 27th street loft space. They have added another editing suite, several graphics workstations and administrative offices and personnel.
