Editor, Cut+Run
Editor Beau Dickson thrives at the intersection of unexpected elements, exploring underserved stories and juxtaposing visuals to craft fresh perspectives. His work seamlessly blends narrative-enhancing graphics with editorial storytelling, as showcased in campaigns for Adidas, Google, The New York Times, AT&T, and Hennessy, created with agencies Droga5, Johannes Leonardo, BBH, and Translation.
Dickson’s journey began in his native Canada, where he attended film school in Toronto. A pivotal moment came when he collaborated with video installation artist Marco Brambilla on complex, large-scale projects. As one of the first employees at boutique visual effects company Artjail, Dickson honed his craft but eventually followed his passion for editing to Cut+Run, where he found his creative voice.
Most recently, Dickson’s visually striking style was celebrated in Adidas Originals’ Gazelle, earning editing Gold at Ciclope, AICP, and the Shots Awards, as well as a Bronze Pencil for Editing at The One Show. Additional highlights include his work on Google’s Black Owned Friday, winning an AICP/Next Award and four Clio Awards, as well as The New York Times' Independent Journalists Campaign, which won a Silver Pencil at The One Show and a Bronze Clio.
