Editor Greg Sunmark Leaves Red Car to Join Reel FX in Texas
Digital studio Reel FX (Dallas/Santa Monica) has added Senior Editor Greg Sunmark to its roster. Sunmark comes to Reel FX from Red Car, where he spent the last 10 years as an editor. Throughout his career he has worked with top agencies including BBDO, Leo Burnett, DraftFCB and DDB on brands such as Chrysler, Midas and McDonalds. Recent work for Sunmark includes the spot, "State of Hope," for State Farm from DDB Chicago and director Joe Pytka, which aired at the Hurricane Sandy relief concert that took place in Madison Square Garden in New York.
Reel FX Commercial General Manager Keith McCabe notes, "Greg is the epitome of everything we look for in an artist here at Reel FX. Not only is he is an amazingly talented editor with a unique style and gift for storytelling, he is also incredibly collaborative, great with creatives, and a true pleasure to work with. We could not be more excited to have Greg join our team."
Executive Producer Gary Banks, also noted, "Finding the right senior editor is a tough challenge. They need to have a strong creative opinion, but know how to communicate it without killing anyone. After talking with many of Greg's previous agency clients they all told stories that basically said the same things: 'he's a great editor, he won't let you down' and 'he's the nicest guy to work with.' I'm proud he's joined Reel FX!"
After studying film and video production at the University of Iowa, Sunmark joined Red Car as a runner in 1996, progressing to a full-time editor in 2002. He has worked on hundreds of commercials and his work has earned him numerous industry accolades including two AICE Award nominations for his work on spots for McDonald’s and State Farm. In addition to his editorial work, Sunmark also balances an established career as a voiceover artist. He’s been in radio and TV ads for McDonald’s, Sears, Aleve, Budweiser, Subway, Toyota, and Kraft Foods, among others. When not editing or exercising his voiceover chops, he enjoys writing music and perfecting old craft cocktail recipes.
