LOS ANGELES - Music production and supervision company Human (www.humanworldwide.com ) has promoted Kamela Anderson to West Coast executive producer and head of sync. She will oversee all West Coast operations for Human, including PostHuman, its independent post production entity.
As Human’s former head of sync and A&R, Anderson helped build the music supervision department. She spent the past eight years in various roles within Human and has become a rising voice in commercial music.
Anderson’s career in advertising began in sales at HSI Productions before joining Anonymous Content to work in their in-house sales department. After that, she joined Human and worked on several notable brand films that went on to win a number of industry awards, including four Clio Awards, a Bronze Pencil, a Gold Andy Award and a Silver Lion. Her work at Human can be seen in commercials for Apple, Xbox, Adidas, Samsung, Amazon, BMW, Netflix, NFL, Meta, Gatorade, Google, Doritos and Mountain Dew. For Dream Further, Nike’s girl-powered ad promoting the Women’s World Cup, Joan Jett’s “Bad Reputation,” was synced to deliver optimal emotional impact. Jett later lauded this needledrop as “stunning” and "carrying a strong message beyond the brand.”
“Kamela started at Human when it was a very different shop," notes Human’s managing partner, Gareth Williams. "We offered original music and sound design, and that was it. With Kam's guidance, we have grown into providing music supervision and licensing to many award-winning films and commercials. This well-deserved promotion is the start of a new chapter for Human in our complete approach to any music requirement. Kamela’s energy and unparalleled love of music is a gift, and we are so proud to have her helm our West Coast adventures.”
