Technicolor announced the appointment of the former co-president of Fox Animation, Andrea Miloro, as the president of Mikros Animation. Miloro will be heading Technicolor’s animation production and business teams.
The company’s official statement reads: “Miloro’s appointment reinforces Technicolor’s commitment to its global feature and episodic animation services under the Mikros Animation brand.”
Miloro holds 20 plus years of experience in the animation sector. She recently served as co-president of Fox Animation and previously held various senior production roles at Fox/BlueSky Studios and Sony Pictures Animation.
Sharing her excitement Miloro said, “I am delighted to be joining Mikros Animation at such an exciting time. The whole industry is going through a massive transformation which is creating new business and creative opportunities for animation. With an unparalleled track record in animation production, the high level of passion the talent has for the craft of CG animation, and the group’s global network of studios in Paris, Montreal, Los Angeles, and Bangalore, Mikros Animation is uniquely positioned to help clients bring their vision to screens, in every format, through both front and back-end creative solutions.”
In less than 10 years, Mikros Animation has delivered nine feature animation projects including the 2021 VES-nominated The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run for Paramount Animation, Asterix – The Secret of the Magic Potion and The Mansion of the Gods for M6 Studio, Captain Underpants for DreamWorks Animation and The Little Prince for LPPTV, M6 Films and Orange Studio.
On the episodic side, Technicolor’s teams have delivered nearly 30 shows for clients, including Mickey and the Roadster Racers and Mira, Royal Detective for Disney Junior, Boss Baby: Back in Business and Fast and Furious: Spy Racers for DreamWorks Animation, The Penguins of Madagascar and, very recently, Kamp Koral: SpongeBob’s Under Years for Nickelodeon.
Miloro concluded, “Upcoming projects such as Paw Patrol: The Movie for SpinMaster, The Tiger’s Apprentice for Paramount Animation and others currently in production are exciting prospects for Mikros Animation. I am thrilled to begin the next chapter for the group, with the support of a great team that has been critical to our past successes, along with a roster of new talent that will be joining the team throughout our multicultural studios worldwide.”
