From the language of colour to the hand drawn and photo-real, we bring ideas to life through the use of movement, storytelling and timing.
The Executive Producer is a senior role within The Mill. The role has both internal and external responsibilities. Externally, the role is client facing, requiring the EP to identify and win the appropriate work from both existing and new clients. The EP will need to be confident in articulating the Mill message and will need to work with the New Business and marketing team to get the message across. The EP will need to be a strong negotiator with a focus on pitching and winning work in conjunction with Creative Directors.
The VFX EP is responsible for MILL VFX production working closely with producers and creatives to produce the best work possible. The EP converts traditional agency and production briefs into Mill creative responses. Delivering profitable productions using the mill infrastructure and key services.
The EP manages the direct client relationships, is the key client contact and is the escalation point responsible for the overall production budget, P&L and project profitability. The EP should be able to share their clients with more junior members of the team and encourage senior producers to gain a good and solid client base.
The EP is responsible for making sure producers within their team are keeping projects on budget and running smoothly jumping in where possible, but not necessarily dealing with the day to day.
