In his new position, he is expected to bring authenticity back to the PFI brand, which is gearing up to bring apparel, accessories and lifestyle products to market. He will also work on new character development and other content for additional properties in the Saban Brands catalogue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe global success of Paul Frank Industries is a true testament to the creativity of Paul Frank and his colorful imagination and quirky designs,\u201d said Dan Castle, the managing director of Saban Brands Lifestyle Group. \u201cAs we continue to evolve the PFI brand, we couldn\u2019t think of a better talent to join our team. We are so excited to have Paul on board and look forward to his contributions and what\u2019s to come for PFI and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I started sewing Julius wallets back in 1995, I had no idea how popular the character and brand would become,\u201d added Frank. \u201cJulius and all of the Paul Frank characters are a part of me, which is why it\u2019s such an amazing feeling to reunite with them. I\u2019m excited to join the Saban Brands family and see what the future holds.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOS ANGELES: Saban Brands has appointed the iconic artist and designer Paul Frank as the company&#8217;s director of creative development.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":479,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[257,258,259,260],"class_list":["post-6759","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","","category-top-stories","tag-julius-the-monkey","tag-paul-frank","tag-paul-frank-industries","tag-saban-brands"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
