Superprod Adds Art Development Department

Superprod has brought in Jean Duval as its new studio director, along with establishing a unit fully dedicated to its animation development.

Duval will supervise all animation endeavors, including pilots and series. He will oversee the development and production of animated series (in-house productions and executive production services) and will work closely with the showrunners, directors and art teams of all projects.

Patrick Ermosilla, chief creative officer of Superprod Animation, will head the new art development department, which already counts 15 new creatives. Superprod Animation is currently working on seven series in production at various stages and has a large development slate, including series and feature films.

Duval said: ​”I’ve had a strong desire to work with the Superprod teams for a long time. I am proud and honored to finally be able to join them today.”

Ermosilla said: “Our teams are able to exercise their talent on a wide variety of projects. They always aim to ensure high-end production value and artistic coherence, both for our own productions and for those of major clients such as Netflix, for whom we currently produce several series in our studios in Paris and Angoulême.”​
