LOS ANGELES - Lost Planet (https://lostplanet.com) recently welcomed editor Catherine Bull to its roster of talent. Her career encompasses high-profile commercials, film collaborations with artists and museums, and insightful documentaries, as well as a list of recurring collaborators.
Bull hails from the Bay Area. She started her career at First Edition in New York City before moving to Progressive Image Group, and eventually Spot Welders in Los Angeles, where she worked for the past 17 years. She has worked on many films about the lives and work of artists, including LACMA’s Ed Ruscha, Woody, and the World’s Hottest Pepper from director Lance Acord - a short film about LA artist Ed Ruscha as seen through his personal spaces. Catherine has collaborated with Acord on numerous other projects, including the global Nike campaign “Find Your Greatness."
Her brand work also includes projects for Jeep, Ford, Coca-Cola, Pandora, Nike, Google, Facebook, Microsoft and Ray-Ban. She’s edited several Super Bowl commercials, including Chevy’s documentary-style ad My Dad’s Car, directed by longtime collaborator Chris Wilcha, and Ford’s Stuck, helmed by directorial duo Hoffman/Metoyer.
Photographer/director Lauren Greenfield tapped Bull to edit many of her projects, including the Tribeca Film Festival short Beauty CULTure and Magic City, commissioned by GQ and Condé Nast Entertainment. Social Studies is a five-part documentary series premiering in September on FX/Hulu that explores the experiences of a diverse group of LA teens growing up in the age of social media.
“I have many close friends and colleagues who’ve worked with Lost Planet and raved about how amazing they are to work with," says Bull. "Then, I met everyone at Lost Planet, and they were so warm and welcoming, so I knew I was in the right place. I enjoy the laid-back family vibe and am very excited by the shop’s wide-ranging body of work. I know that Lost Planet will support any creative endeavor I want to try, and I’m thrilled to join their ranks.”
