Untold Studios is a visual effects company known for its work on high-profile television and film projects, including the Amazon Prime series The Boys. It has been growing its presence across several countries, with offices in cities such as Los Angeles, London and Mumbai, positioning itself as a major international player in the VFX industry.
The company has now brought in Adrianna Cohen, an executive with a background at animation and effects studios as well as the consultancy McKinsey & Company, to head up its film and television division. This is a senior leadership role focused on overseeing the studio's strategy and creative output across its various global offices, and comes shortly after Untold recruited another senior figure from a rival firm it had previously acquired.
This kind of appointment matters because it signals how VFX studios, which sit behind the scenes of many major screen productions, are organising themselves to handle growing demand for effects work in film and television.
