The Imaginarium Studios has recruited Maeve Russell as head of production, working at Pinewood Studios and Cinesite’s offices in central London and reporting to CEO Matt Brown.

Her focus will be on providing production leadership, managing multiple shoots across the company’s key project areas of games, film, music and TV.

Russell joins from Beyond Capture in Vancouver, where she was vice president.

She started out in production in Web Summit, producing tech conferences around the world, and then migrated into the industry as a production assistant working on shows such as Supergirl and the Babysitter’s Club.

Russell’s recent credits include Resident Evil 4, New Tales from the Borderlands, and Hogwarts Legacy.

Imaginarium Studios was formed in 2012 by actor and director Andy Serkis (Lord of the Rings, Planet of the Apes and Star Wars franchises) as a stand-alone facility focused on performance-led capture and virtual production services. Last month the company opened a third volume stage at SIDE Studio 1 in central London.
