TBWA Asia has appointed Sung Lin Gun as regional head of post-production for their newly launched network production company, Bolt.
Sung Lin Gun has worked across multiple markets, most recently in China where he spent four years heading up the movie-making arm of one of Beijing’s largest VFX post-production houses.
Prior to this, he founded Peach Blossom Media animation studio in Singapore where he produced and directed various TV series and feature films, which ran across of the top design/illustration houses in the world, creating artwork for movies, comic-book and video games, like Batman, Star Wars and Street Fighter.
Lin Gun’s work has picked up ‘Best Animated Feature Film’ at the Golden Bell awards, as well as being nominated, twice, for an Emmy for executive producer and director.
“Bolt will deliver high-quality VFX and post-production across Asia; eliminating the various layers of process when work is managed beyond our region,” he said. Asia’s digital platforms are distinctive, especially in China, resulting in new forms of digital content, which requires unconventional thinking. So ideally, we want to reach the stage of nirvana whereby whatever our talented creatives can dream up, we can create quickly, seamlessly and beautifully.”
Bolt is in the midst of hiring some more people to fill out their team.
