Miami, USA — October 22nd, 2025 — NMF is proud to announce the addition of Randy Wedick to its growing North America team, reinforcing the company’s technical expertise and support for IB/E products across the Americas.
Over the past two decades, Randy Wedick has been a familiar face among filmmakers, rental houses, and manufacturers — known for his deep technical understanding, hands-on experience, and passion for innovation in the motion picture industry. His work with IB/E Optics has been especially significant, spanning optical systems, expanders, the Raptor Scope, and custom lens solutions that serve both high-end cinematography and emerging imaging technologies.
During his tenure at Band Pro Film & Digital, Randy helped pioneer tapeless workflows in the U.S. and collaborated with DITs, cinematographers, and post professionals during key transitions in digital cinema. Later, through his close relationship with IB/E, he became one of the most knowledgeable specialists worldwide on the company’s product range — assisting in product development, quality control, and on-set integration. His practical insights have been instrumental in bringing IB/E’s precision optical engineering to real-world production environments.
Randy has also contributed to technical initiatives and testing programs with Sony, Canon, Leitz, Zeiss, Codex, Teradek, Open Drives, and Semote, but his expertise in IB/E optics and accessories remains a defining hallmark of his career. Most recently, he served as CTO of Angénieux Americas, where he helped bridge the gap between optical innovation and cinematographers’ on-set needs.
An accomplished educator, Randy has delivered nearly 100 seminars worldwide on optics, workflow, camera systems, HDR, and color science, often featuring IB/E technology as a core component of modern imaging solutions. His deep knowledge spans sensor design, color management, wireless systems, metadata, and filtration — always grounded in the realities of professional production.
“Randy has been a trusted partner and specialist for IB/E products for many years. His technical insight and dedication to excellence have earned our highest respect, and we’re delighted that he will continue to represent IB/E through NMF’s expanding presence in the Americas.”
Klaus Eckerl, CEO, IB/E Optics
“Joining NMF is an exciting new chapter,” said Randy Wedick. “I’ve had the privilege of working closely with IB/E products for years, and I look forward to helping even more filmmakers unlock their full potential through NMF’s exceptional support network.”
Randy’s long-standing collaboration with IB/E and his deep understanding of their optical ecosystem make him a tremendous asset to our team,” said Nacho Mazzini, Managing Director of NMF. “His experience ensures that NMF can provide the highest level of support to our IB/E customers throughout the Americas.”
