Editor Keith Olwell and executive producer Elizabeth Kiehner
have teamed up to helm Proton Studio, a full service editorial
resource with expanded creative capabilities including
sound design and finishing,
as well as a road-worthy, full
capacity studio for working
remote situations. Located

editorial companies as
89 Edit, FilmCore and Bug
Editorial, where he has worked with high-profile clients
including BMW, Microsoft and Sirius.
Proton will operate in strategic partnership with multidisciplinary
design studio Thornberg & Forester, to offer

full range of 3D and CGI capabilities to clients. Proton offers
finishing in HD, SD and other formats.
Olwell’s body of creative work includes DJ Dangermouse’s
music video for the “Grey Album.” For this project, he
researched and then mixed together live footage of Jay-
Z performing his “Black Album” and the Beatles playing a
TV set from “Hard Day’s Night.” The result was a video that
received so many hits it had to be mirrored on numerous sites.
“The fun part was that mirroring was done voluntarily by the
hosts and fans,” Olwell notes.
