Framestore has hired David Michaels as its new Director of Production and Business Development in its Chicago office. He will be working across Integrated Advertising.

With a decade of global VFX and post-production experience, he joins Framestore after five years at Smoke & Mirrors where he was an Executive Producer, initially in the company’s New York studio and then in Amsterdam. Before that, he held positions at post-production company Quietman where he worked his way up from Junior Producer to Head of Production.

‘I am thrilled to become a part of the exceptional Framestore team in Chicago, with the ability to draw from the craft and heritage of the entire Framestore family. Our studio is well positioned to create brilliant work, consistently delivering the highest quality that our clients expect,’ says Michaels.

‘We’re incredibly excited that David has made the move to join us here at Framestore,’ said Krystina Wilson, Managing Director, Chicago. ‘The scope of work that clients are bringing to us is expanding and to have someone with as much experience as David, looking after both production and business development will greatly benefit Framestore’s global operations.’

David Michaels graduated from Denison University in Granville, Ohio with a degree in Economics and Theatre before attending New York University where he obtained his Master’s Degree in Arts Administration. In his previous roles he has worked on projects for global brands including Samsung, Microsoft, Coca-Cola, and American Express.
