Augenblick Studios, independent animation studio known for The Jellies, Ugly Americans, and most recently Netflix’s Headspace Guide to Meditation, has appointed Carrie Miller as the chief operating officer.
Miller arrives at Augenblick Studios after serving as the vice president of Frederator Digital where she managed all digital production of their original cartoon series such as Slug Riot, (not)Hero, Chris P. Duck, and Shadowstone Par, as well as the production and programming of their YouTube properties including The Leaderboard, Get in the Robot, and Channel Frederator.
In her new role, she will oversee all production, development and partnerships at Augenblick Studios and its subsidiaries. Miller will be working closely with founder Aaron Augenblick to advance the studios’ vision and distinctive approach to animation.
The appointment comes at a significant time of growth for the animation studio as this year sees them embarking on multiple series productions including Adult Swim’s upcoming Teenage Euthanasia, new ventures, and original IP development. They currently have shows in development at HBO Max, FX, Adult Swim and PBS.
