"I like comedy/dialogue editing best, especially the challenge of crafting the funniest story possible,” says Cramer.  “It's super satisfying to take a concept and make it more memorable or more moving than expected.  I am also a former DJ who loves music and collects way too many vinyl records."

Bill studied at Florida State University Film School, with a double major in creative writing and film.  Shortly after arriving in New York City Cramer landed a job as an assistant editor at Crew Cuts, eventually working his way up to editor.  While there he won Silver Lion at Cannes for his work on Showbound Naturals dog food, and Gold Promax/BDA award for a Law & Order campaign he cut for Cloo.

Northern Lights EP Robin Hall notes, “I’ve known Bill for years. He’s disciplined, creative, passionate, dedicated to his craft and to making every project a success.  It’s been exciting to watch his career develop from afar. It’s even more exciting now that he’s joined us here at Northern Lights, he’s a perfect fit.”
