Internationally-awarded senior editor Izzy Ehrlich has once again joined forces with Toronto’s School Editing. A match made in ad-heaven, the move sees Ehrlich come full circle to settle in where her career began.
“I’m thrilled to be returning to what feels like home for me,” says Ehrlich. “The culture and creative drive at School are what made me love this industry in the first place, so coming back was a no-brainer.”
Having kick-started her career as an assistant at School in 2007, Ehrlich returns with a wealth of experience and a reputation as one of Toronto’s most intuitive and in-demand editors. She recently edited the much-lauded Gillette spot Samson, which features a father helping his transgender son shave for the first time, for Grey Canada.
Ehrlich put all of her creative energy into her career over the past decade, quickly progressing from the assistant chair to the editor table. Along the way, she’s picked up multiple awards, including an AICE Award for Best Editing for Tourism Nova Scotia.
When not bringing the stories behind Adidas, Reebok, Coca-Cola, Dairy Farmers, Coors Light, Budweiser, and Nova Scotia Tourism to life, Ehrlich can be found tearing up the stage on the drums for one of her two bands, Prettyboy and Found Objects. Her passion for music is as natural as her editing style. She sees, hears, writes and cuts in the same sensory way. For her, stories are visualised in shape and colour as well as narrative form. Izzy brings her own special brand of energy and style to every project she works on.
“Izzy has been a gun since day one,” says School Executive Producer Sarah Brooks. “It’s no surprise Izzy’s a drummer. She has her own rhythm and it easily translates into her editing style. When an editor creates something unique and makes it feel effortless, it’s like poetry in motion. Izzy has that in spades. She’s also a 10 out of 10 human, and we’re so happy to have her back.”
