On 2nd July, we were thrilled to welcome Lisa Dee as the Sales Director for Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden. Dee joins from the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham where she has been Head of Film since 2009, attracting, facilitating, and delivering East London locations to the film and TV industry. Highlights have included establishing Eastbrook Studios in Dagenham, attracting investment into The Wharf Studios in Barking and creating the ‘Make It Here’ programme.
Reporting to Emily Stillman, SVP Studio Operations, Dee will play a key role in client relations ensuring sales remain strong as the studio expands. Stillman commented:
“This is an exciting time to be joining the Studios as our masterplan development gets underway. Lisa’s knowledge, relationships and insights will be invaluable as the business continues to grow. With a demonstrable commitment to supporting emerging talent she is a dedicated advocate of the work that the CrewHQ team is delivering and I know will help our mission to make the industry more accessible.”
Dee commented,
“This is such an exciting role, there is so much opportunity ahead for growth as the Studios expand and I’m so pleased that I get to be part of this next phase. Leavesden offers a great environment for productions with fantastic facilities and services that our crews really appreciate.”
