Editorial boutique Northern Lights, with shops in New York, L.A. and San Francisco, has signed Cannes Lion-winning editor Adam “Zuk” Zuckerman for commercial, promo, trailer, and direct-to-brand representation.

Zuckerman is known for his inventive, fast-paced, emotionally driven, syncopated style, as well as his skill in creating a precise atmosphere and rhythm for every scene. He has collaborated with directors such as Darren Aronofsky, Thibaut Grevet, Kenneth Cappello, Brett Ratner, and F. Gary Gray on campaigns for brands including The New York Times, Verizon, Alfa Romeo, Chevy, Chase, Adidas and Puma.

Zuckerman noted, “My passion is to make the viewer feel, cutting with a fearless edge that helps push the boundaries of emotional and creative storytelling, finding the soul of a project and aligning it with the vision of the team involved. Now that I’m part of the Northern Lights Family, I have complete access and freedom to oversee the entire creative process from start to finish under one roof.”

Zuckerman received worldwide recognition for his collaboration with Darren Aronofsky and Droga5 on The New York Times' "The Truth is Hard" campaign, showing the complexity of truth and how it’s reported. The work took home two Gold Film Craft Lions at Cannes for Best Editing and Best Campaign, a Gold Pencil for Best Editing at The One Show, and a Wood Pencil for Best Editing at D&AD.

Zuckerman began his career working under the supervision of Brian Kushner and Sean “Puffy” Combs, quickly establishing himself as one of the most sought-after music video editors in the business. His influence is evident in videos from artists such as Beyonce, Jay Z, Lady Gaga, Kings of Leon, Muse, Justin Beiber, Rihanna, Mariah Carey, Drake, Kanye West, and Nicki Minaj to name just several.

Zuckerman quickly transitioned into editing feature films, scripted shows, documentaries, live performances, interactive content, musicals, promos, and commercials.

Prior to joining Northern Lights, Zuckerman had been working independently throughout his career. He had--and will continue to maintain--non-exclusive L.A. market music video and commercial representation through Bonch.

Zuckerman is currently editing writer/director Devin Hamptons psychological thriller Snap, a scripted anthology series scheduled to premiere on AMC+ in late 2023.
