New York-based editorial shop BlueRock is pleased to announce that Ben Keller has been promoted to editor.
Keller is a multifaceted editor who draws viewers in through his adept use of intimate visuals and unexpected pacing. He boasts a wide-ranging skill set developed while working at BlueRock as an assistant editor, honing his talents under many of their talented editors.

“BlueRock has a long and successful tradition of nurturing young talent and providing the opportunity for them to flourish as editors — Ben is the latest in that storied succession,” said Ethel Rubinstein Owner/CEO of Lively Group. “Everyone takes notice when that special talent comes along. Our editors, producers, his peers and most importantly, our clients, recognized that he was the real deal at their first encounter. He’s never looked back and that is very exciting.”
“Ben’s engaging personality, talent, and his attention to the editing details make him a great addition to the editing roster,” added Jennifer Lederman, VP/Managing Director, BlueRock. “Ben has worked incredibly hard to earn the title of editor. I’m thrilled we were able to acknowledge that with this promotion.”
