Abandon Editorial is excited to announce that award-winning editor Scott Butzer has joined its roster. Butzer brings a highly versatile editorial voice shaped by over 15 years of experience spanning commercials, music videos, documentaries, and more. Known for his unique ability to move fluidly between genres, blending visual storytelling with experimental approaches, he has delivered standout work for Google, Frito-Lay, Apple, TurboTax, Toyota, Vince Staples, and more.

“Scott is a phenomenal editor and one of the strongest storytellers in the industry,” shares Co-Founder/Managing Partner Jonny Mass. “He’s a specialist at being a generalist, a true creative partner whose instincts transcend genre. In addition to the caliber of work, he is a great person – wickedly funny and kind. We are very excited to work together.”

Scott held positions at Cabin Editing Company, Whitehouse Post and Final Cut. His collaborations span leading agencies and directors, including Wieden + Kennedy, Goodby Silverstein & Partners, Apple, We Are From LA, Marcus Sonderland, and Jonathan Krisel.

Butzer is celebrated for his creative freedom and instinct for shaping narratives through unconventional frameworks. His work has been recognized with AICP awards for Vince Staples’ “Fun!” music video and Frito-Lay's “Taste of Soccer,” while his edit for Google’s “Year in Search” earned multiple Webby Awards among others and has garnered over 250 million views worldwide.

At Abandon, Butzer is reunited with Edward Khoma, Editor and Co-Founder, who previously worked alongside Scott, as well as EP Joanna Hall.
