MANHATTAN TRANSFER MIAMI HIRES CREATIVE EDITOR HERNAN MENENDEZ

COCONUT GROVE, FL - Manhattan Transfer Miami has increased its editorial staff with the addition of creative cutter Hernan Menendez. The Spanish born, Argentinean-raised Menendez comes to the South Florida studio from New York's Wild Child. He's not only skilled in creative editorial, but post production supervision as well.

Menendez, who cuts on Avid Meridien, has worked with a wide range of agencies over the years, including The Bravo Group, Lapiz, The Vidal Partnership and Wing Latino. He has also edited campaigns for Heineken, Miller Time, Cingular, Wendy's and many others. Since joining Manhattan Transfer Miami (www.mtmiami.com), Hernan has been working on the McDonald's account and recently completed a large campaign for Grand Bahama Vacations, which aired this past summer, and an AT+T spot due to air this fall.

"I am really excited to be here. I think that Miami is going to become a very important place for the production world," comments Menendez. "So, what could be better than to work with the strongest company here? I am really looking forward to the future."
