Today Zareh Nalbandian shared some exciting leadership news: “I’m thrilled to announce Animal Logic’s Chief Operating Officer Sharon Taylor will step up to become Co-CEO, joining me in leading the company. I plan to step down from my position in September this year, and Sharon will then serve as the sole CEO. For almost 20 years, Sharon has contributed to Animal Logic’s success, and I’m confident that her leadership will ensure the studio continues to grow and innovate in the animation space for years to come. I’m excited about my next chapter, and I look forward to continuing to support the screen sector in Australia and beyond and focusing on producing and developing compelling stories with AL Entertainment and Truant Pictures.”
