The newly formed factual label Arrow Pictures has tapped Poppy Dixon for the role of development executive.<\/p>\n
Dixon\u2019s remit is to help build Arrow Pictures\u2019 slate of feature documentaries, high-end documentary series and scripted content. Dixon was latterly a producer at Raw, where she was also head of development for feature documentaries and specials.<\/p>\n
Her producing credits include the BAFTA-winning feature documentary The Imposter<\/em>, the doc-scripted-hybrid movie American Animals<\/em> and the Harvey Weinstein documentary Untouchable<\/em>, which premiered at Sundance 2019. She has also previously worked on a number of projects with John Smithson, Arrow Pictures\u2019 creative director, at Darlow Smithson, including 9\/11; Phone Calls from the Towers<\/em>.<\/p>\n Smithson said: \u201cWe have had a huge amount of interest in our ideas since we launched in December, so we are delighted to have Poppy on board to help fuel our growth. With nearly 15 years\u2019 experience of working in factual film and TV, in both the U.K. and New York, Poppy brings a strong production background, combined with intellectual rigor and storytelling flair. She has originated, developed and produced a wealth of program ideas, with much domestic and international success. She is a great asset to our team.\u201d<\/p>\n Dixon added: \u201cIt\u2019s fantastic to join Arrow Pictures at this exciting, formative stage. John Smithson has one of the best creative visions in the industry and I am delighted to be working alongside him to grow the label\u2019s output both in the U.K. and internationally.<\/p>\n \u201cArrow Pictures already has a rich slate\u2014from exploring the relationship between man and beast; to stories of the 20th century\u2019s most controversial characters; to some of the most compelling crime cases of recent years. I\u2019m looking forward to working closely with the best talent and the world\u2019s leading platforms on these projects.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The newly formed factual label Arrow Pictures has tapped Poppy Dixon for the role of development executive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1049,"featured_media":13320,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[3312,4180],"class_list":["post-13319","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-arrow-pictures","tag-poppy-dixon","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"\n
