such a renowned group of industry leaders,” said Hecht. “Our goal is to build
Biggies into a hit machine, turning out some of the most inventive and exciting
entertainment properties that cut across all platforms—online, mobile, TV
and film. Scott, Blaine, Chris, Robert and Kari are elite talents in their
respective fields. By bringing them all together, we truly have been able to
create the perfect combination of creative, marketing and business minds that
