Jeffrey Giles rose up in the ranks at Avi Lerner and Danny Dimbort’s powerhouse mini-studio NuImage/Millennium Films. His experience and knowledge on international pricing, sales, marketing and packaging have been invaluable in propelling Automatic to become one of the industry’s fastest growing sales agencies.
In some ways this partnering represents a microcosm of a larger Hollywood studio system with an intimate and personal touch. The representation of talent, choosing which projects to produce, and then directing the selling of those projects to the appropriate market is the new face of management and representation for companies like LA Management and Automatic Entertainment that now compete on a global level.
