Technicolor Creative Studios Launches Creative Hubs Worldwide

Technicolor Creative Studios is launching a series of global campus locations designed to host leading VFX and production studios in co-located spaces, with new locations in Soho, London, Soho, New York and Culver City, Los Angeles, joining established campuses in Paris and Bangalore.

The goal is to bring multiple creative studios from around the world under one roof, giving brands and filmmakers that work with Technicolor Creative Studios access to top creative production talent in one location.

“Our aspiration is to develop our Creative Hubs to be the next Google, WhatsApp, Instagram, Sony or Publicis campuses; an unrivalled network of VFX studios located in major international cities ensuring we can continue to service the world’s biggest clients across film, episodic and advertising,” said Christian Roberton, president of Technicolor Creative Studios.

Advertising studios The Moving Picture Company (MPC) and The Mill will share studio space in London and New York, working under the joint leadership of Mark Benson, CEO of MPC, and Josh Mandel, CEO of The Mill. The full suite of Technicolor Creative Studios brands across advertising and entertainment will share a Creative Hub and Innovation Centre in Culver City. Each studio will retain its unique brand identity and creative talent while also enjoying the benefits of a co-located studio environment and top facilities.

“The world around us is changing fast and we are embracing this,” Roberton said. “From the adoption of new technologies to interconnected infrastructure and talent, the formation of our new Creative Hubs is a progressive step designed to further improve the client experience. This will drive more collaboration and innovation, at scale and pace. As we continue to partner with the world’s most ambitious agencies and brands, we can now offer even easier access to the best talent and creative production facilities across the world.”
