RINGSIDE CREATIVE HIRES EDITOR CHRIS RANDOLPH
RingSide Creative has
brought on senior editor
Chris Randolph. Randolph
brings more than 20 years of
post production experience
to RingSide, all in the Detroit
market, and is a multitalented
artist, skilled in
off-line and online editing,
visual effects, compositing
and graphics. He arrives
from a similar position with
Pluto Post.
RingSide Creative Director
of Sales and Marketing Kim
Fairman said that Randolph’s broad skill set and close
relationships with ad agencies in the Detroit market and
elsewhere make him a great addition to the company’s
editorial team. For his part, Randolph said he was impressed
with the moves RingSide Creative has recently made to
broaden the scope of its services and penetrate new
markets. He adds, “This is where I began my career, I like the
people and I like the direction the company has taken.”
The move to RingSide is like a homecoming for Randolph,
who began his career as an Assistant Editor with the
company (then GTN) in 1989. He spent the past two years at
Pluto Post where he managed the editorial team and also
performed off-line and online editing. Among his recent
credits is a campaign for Dodge Caravan.
