Global editorial company Cut+Run has welcomed editor Hanna Sturwold to its roster. 

Based in Los Angeles, Sturwold is known for her bold, instinct-driven editing style, shaping narrative arcs with precision and emotional depth. Her work spans international film festivals, high-profile commercial campaigns, and prestige television projects.

Sturwold’s expertise in storytelling has earned her multiple accolades, including Best Editing at the 2024 Film Olympiad for her work on the short film Boxed, as well as recognition from FFTG, the Garoa Awards, and the Short Stop International Film Festival for The Gesture and the Word. Her narrative portfolio includes The German King and Irish Goodbye, both showcased at the Cannes Emerging Filmmaker Showcase, as well as episodic projects such as Physical (Apple TV+) and The Resort (Peacock). She also edited Under the Influence, a documentary that premiered at SXSW, chronicling the rise and fall of major YouTube influencers.

Her commercial and brand work includes campaigns for Nike, Infiniti, Snickers, Adidas, Google, Disney, Intel, and Bottega Veneta, alongside collaborations with NBC and Amazon Studios.

“What attracted me to Cut+Run was their reputation as a creative and collaborative powerhouse,” says Sturwold. “They push the boundaries of what editing can do, blending cutting-edge techniques with a deep passion for storytelling. The opportunity to work on such diverse projects was a huge draw. I’m all about creating work that stands out and resonates, and Cut+Run feels like the perfect place to continue growing while collaborating with some of the best in the business.”

Amburr Farls, managing partner at Cut+Run, adds: “Hanna can find the quickest, most elegant emotional throughline for every story she works on, she can hear a film’s rhythm and draw it out with precision. She’s an immensely talented editor, and we are excited to have her here with us at Cut+Run.”

With this addition, Cut+Run continues to expand its team of editors dedicated to crafting compelling, industry-leading work.
