Animated Storyboards expands in AP markets increasing staff and opening Shanghai office
Due to a considerable increase in business across Asia-Pacific, Animated Storyboards (ASB) Asia has commenced an aggressive growth and restructuring initiative to better serve these markets. This includes an increase in staff across all disciplines, specifically to accommodate these growth areas, and the forthcoming opening of its Shanghai office, which will be ASB’s second major production hub in Asia.
ASB is a full-service production, animation and audio studio, specializing in pre-viz, 2D and 3D animatics, HD Test productions, broadcast RTB sequences, viral campaigns, and traditional storyboards. Established in New York in 2001, ASB has quickly grown into a global company, with offices on four continents.
China, India and Singapore have proven to be especially high-growth markets for ASB. “We’re thrilled to be able to provide high quality work, on tight deadlines, and at reasonable budgets, and our success in these countries has proven there’s a real demand for this,” says Arvin Sanchez, Managing Director for Asia Pacific (pictured top).
“As the world is really looking at Asia now for business growth, we’re just as excited to have established a presence in these areas, as we are to expand our relationships into other flourishing markets – Australia, Japan, the Philippines, Korea, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia.” added Sanchez.
Animated Storyboards Chief Executive Officer Ezra Krausz (left) said, “Communication and collaboration are at the core of what we do, and it is essential to us that these values are upheld as we continue to expand in these markets.”
ASB’s clients include agencies such as Ogilvy, Saatchi, JWT, BBDO, Lowe, Grey, Leo Burnett, Y&R, Publicis, Anomaly, Fred & Farid, among several others.
