The industry veteran brings 30+ years of experience across television and film with credits on projects including ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,’ ‘Tron: Legacy,’ ‘Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey’ and ‘The Orville.’
Visual effects studio BOT VFX has added industry veteran Natasha Anne Francis to its creative roster as executive producer. Francis brings 30+ years’ experience in television and film as a VFX producer and supervisor. The move comes as the VFX company expands its “ranks and ambitions.”
Francis’ credits include Hugo; The Curious Case of Benjamin Button; Tron: Legacy; Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey; The Orville; Suicide Squad; and more recently Peter Pan & Wendy. She has worked with studios including Framestore; Digital Domain; Scanline VFX; Pixomondo; Animal Logic; and Zoic. In addition, she worked on the client side with Fox; Starz; and MRC. Her experience extends to VFX's software/tech side, having worked with Montreal-based Softimage before its 1994 purchase by Microsoft.
"Adding someone as seasoned and multitalented as Natasha onto our executive producer ranks was central to our growth ambitions," commented BOT CEO & founder Hitesh Shah. "We couldn't be more excited about having her on our team as BOT continues to expand in size and capabilities."
