New Delhi (India), September 27: Basilic Fly Studio Limited (NSE: BASILIC), one of the renowned visual effects (VFX) studios in India is delighted to announce a significant expansion in its workforce to meet the surging demand from its valued clients.
Basilic Fly Studio recently secured new business contracts totalling Rs. 10.96 Crores, bolstering its already impressive portfolio. Additionally, the resolution of the 146-day strike between the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) has paved the way for a surge in new work orders.
In anticipation of increased demand and in keeping with its commitment to maintaining the highest quality of work, Basilic Fly Studio is pleased to announce the addition of around 50 talented professionals to its team, strategically distributed across various domains and locations.
This expansion is a testament to Basilic Fly Studio’s continued growth and success, and its commitment to providing its clients with the best possible VFX services.
Specifically, we have welcomed around 30 new team members in Chennai and around 20 in Pune. This expansion extends to key senior positions in crucial domains such as VFX Supervision & Production, Compositing, and Pipeline Management. Our senior recruits bring a wealth of experience to their roles.
For example, our new VFX Supervisor and Producer is an industry veteran with a remarkable 30+ years of experience across more than 85 feature films and 100 series episodes. He has previously collaborated with decision-makers at renowned studios such as Disney, DreamWorks, Warner Bros., and Paramount. He is based in Los Angeles (USA) and will be joining us through our Canadian subsidiary.
Our Compositing Supervisor is another notable addition, bringing with them over 15 years of invaluable experience. Their exceptional talent has left an indelible artistic mark on numerous major TV shows and feature films. This dedication and skill recently earned them a prestigious nomination for the 2023 Global Stage VES Awards held in Los Angles (USA) in the category of “Outstanding Compositing & Lighting in an Episode” for their exceptional work on “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.”
Lastly, our Pipeline Management Team is enriched by three new members, two of whom possess over 10 years of experience, while the remaining member boasts over 15 years of expertise in their field.
We are confident that our new team members will make significant contributions to our company and help us achieve our goals.
