New President of Eyeworks USA

MANHATTAN BEACH: Brant Pinvidic has been elevated to president of Eyeworks USA, where he has been serving as executive VP of development since 2009.

Concurrently, Eyeworks USA has established a new board of directors, comprised of JD Roth and Todd Nelson (the CEOs of Eyeworks USA), Pinvidic and Ross Weintraub, the COO.

Roth said, “Todd and I formed our company literally on our front porches almost 13 years ago, and we’re proud to have grown steadily each year we’ve been in business. Now, with hundreds of employees, and hundreds of hours of programming in development and production each year, we need a superstar with great sales and producing experience, infectious enthusiasm and a genuine love for our business who can work with us to lead Eyeworks USA. We know Brant is that guy, and we’re thrilled to continue to collaborate with him, creating content that moves people and can change their lives in a real way.”
 
Pinvidic commented, “It’s a true luxury to build a career on what you’d actually do for free. I have always felt that way about the TV business, especially as the unscripted world has matured. JD and Todd built a company focused on growth, creativity, and what is the key to the kingdom for Eyeworks USA: transformation—and they’ve never been afraid to take risks or to be ‘noisy.’ Being part of the fabric of the global Eyeworks organization, we are better positioned for growth than ever before. I’m thrilled to get to advance our mission along with the stellar team at Eyeworks USA and the affiliates of the Eyeworks group.”
 
Reinout Oerlemans, CEO and founder of the Eyeworks Group, said, "I have been working closely with Brant Pinvidic since he joined the Eyeworks team five years ago. Brant is an outstanding creative and the right man to spearhead the exchange of his unique brand of creativity with our international sensibilities. I am excited that together we can take this next step."
