Fin Design + Effects Appoints Julia King as Studio Expands in US

Fin Design + Effects, a world-class visual effects studio renowned for its exceptional work in commercials, film, and episodic content, is thrilled to announce the appointment of Julia King as executive producer for North America. With an extensive background in production and a deep network of industry relationships, Julia will play a key role in driving Fin's expansion in the US market.

Julia brings a wealth of experience, having worked at industry powerhouses such as The Mill, Trafik, Furlined, and Shortlist. Her expertise in commercial production, coupled with strong ties to agencies, directors, and brands, makes her a strategic addition to Fin's growing Los Angeles presence. For Julia, the move represents an exciting reunion. "I had the privilege of working with the team in a sales capacity a few years back," she explains.

"I've known for quite some time what a fantastic shop Fin is, and the exceptional caliber of work produced here."

"Julia's industry knowledge, passion for creativity, and dynamic leadership make her a perfect fit for Fin as we continue to expand in North America," said Billy Becket, Fin's head of advertising. "Her presence in Los Angeles will allow us to strengthen relationships, develop new opportunities, and ensure that Fin remains a trusted VFX partner for agencies and production companies alike."

For nearly 24 years, Fin Design + Effects has been a leader in visual effects, delivering award-winning work for some of the world's most recognised brands and directors. With studios in Los Angeles and Australia, Fin’s unique global model offers clients seamless, around-the-clock productions.

"We're able to provide a boutique, highly attentive experience to clients with state-of-the-art visual effects at competitive pricing," Julia notes, highlighting the advantage of their global team spanning multiple time zones and the favourable position of the Australian dollar.

In discussing her vision for client relationships, Julia emphasises the importance of trust and attention to detail. "Beyond superior and innovative visual effects, clients want to know that they're being cared for. They want to trust their VFX partners and feel that they're being well looked after and well communicated with through every step of the process with a solutions-oriented team.

"Fin has an incredible legacy of artistic excellence and innovation, and I'm thrilled to be part of this next chapter. I am both honored and beyond thrilled to be reunited with Billy Becket, working to maintain and expand upon the solid client relationships he developed during his time in the US. I have so much faith in this brand and can't wait to collaborate with our phenomenal west coast, midwest, and east coast sales representatives to generate some world-class pieces of advertising and long-lasting relationships."
