From the release:
Creative studio RASCAL has hired Ellie Thwaites as Senior Producer.
Ellie’s career has seen her produce at The Mill and most recently No.8, working with production houses, agencies such as BBH, MAL, AMV, Ogilvy, S&S, and Grey, with high-profile brands like Huawei, IBM, Dairy Queen, and Paramount+.
A recent career highlight for Ellie was collaborating on a series of 3D floral graphics for the 2024 British Arrows Awards. Working around pipeline and hardware limitations, the team came together to capture the essence of the event, embodying the spirit of creative cooperation and problem solving.
In her new role at RASCAL, Ellie will be leading projects from initial pitch through to final delivery, fostering a stimulating, collaborative atmosphere that will enable her team to complete its best, most boundary-pushing work. She will oversee timelines and budgets and ensure the process is as smooth as possible.
Ellie Thwaites commented, “Joining RASCAL feels like the perfect next step for me. I love how the team pushes creative boundaries not just in VFX, but also in our offerings for grade, audio and music. It’s all about going the extra mile across the board. I’m excited to jump in, work with a super talented crew and take on new challenges. This year, I’m really looking forward to delivering projects that don’t just meet, but totally go beyond what our clients are expecting, helping to build RASCAL’s reputation as a creative powerhouse.”
James Beck, Head of Production at Rascal, added, “In just three short months, Ellie has proven (unsurprisingly) to be a vital part of our London production team. She’s jumped straight in with the most complex projects and wrangled innovative solutions to challenges that have elevated the quality of our work. Ellie demonstrates the kind of talent we strive to nurture here at RASCAL, with her adaptability, hunger for learning and ability to think creatively.
“We are always looking for individuals who aren’t just content with maintaining the status quo but are excited to innovate and lead, just as Ellie has done recently. We’re continuously evolving to meet the demands of an ever-changing industry here at RASCAL and I’m excited to have Ellie here as an integral part of that journey.”
