Virtual production studio Dimension has announced the appointment of four new members of its senior team.

Following the company's recent partnership with DNEG and the subsequent creation of DNEG 360, the studio said its new hires signal its investment in creative new production techniques for feature films, episodic series, music videos, live events and more.

Mark Bustard and Ben Lumsden join as executive producers.

With over 20 years of experience in the live events field, Bustard's most recently served as managing director of nvisible, the agency providing white label project management and production services for events such as Live Nation and Glastonbury Festival.

Dimension's new senior team members, L-R Jo Fletcher Manawa, Mark Bustard, Ben Lumsden and George Murphy Lumsden spent six years at Epic Games, leading the use of Unreal Engine in film and episodic. He previously managed The Imaginarium Studios, and has credits including Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Avengers: Age of Ultron and the Royal Shakespeare Company's production of The Tempest.

Jo Fletcher Manawa joins Dimension as head of operations. In a career spanning the live events and film industries, she has managed stage events at venues such as Wembley and the O2, and global teams for film projects including The Lion King (2019), Prehistoric Planet and House of the Dragon.

Dimension's fourth new hire brings George Murphy into the creative director role. Murphy, whose credits include an Oscar, BAFTA and multiple Emmys and Clios, joins the team following a thirty-year career working on film, episodic and digital media projects.

Steve Jelley, co-CEO at Dimension Studio, said: We are thrilled to welcome Mark, Ben, Jo and George to the team. They bring exceptional experience and success from the film and entertainment industry and join Dimension as we continue to grow our world-class virtual production capabilities and expand an integrated offering across film, episodic and broader narrative based entertainment experiences. Their arrival marks a significant milestone in the growth of Dimension and their combined blend of creativity, experience, and vision will propel us forward. We are not just growing our team; we are enhancing our contribution to an industry that continues to evolve and inspire the world. I am excited to see the new heights we will reach together.
