Independent production studio Bindery has hired Nata Andresen as its head of business development, and Jen Gothard as head of postproduction.

Prior to Bindery, Andresen repped a veritable who’s who of directors, holding sales and rep roles at RSA Films, Simpatico, Taylor James, and Roxanneandco.

Gothard comes over from Beast Editorial where she served in both the Austin and NYC offices, producing campaigns for Progressive, BMW, Exxon, M&Ms, and Revlon.

“Bindery has done an incredible job of marrying production with post to provide a seamless experience for its clients. They have all the right pieces and I’m looking forward to helping them define and scale a more modern approach,” said Gothard.

Andresen added, “I strongly believe that our industry needs more diversity and gender equality, and I was excited to see that Bindery is at the forefront of that conversation and walking the walk. Bindery is majority female and there’s a real dedication to cultivating diverse perspectives across their roster of talent.”

Working with both brands and agencies, Bindery weaves a thread through all aspects of making--from development to production to post. They collaborate with the likes of Apple, Nike, Google, Uber, Sony, West Elm, and L’Oreal, as well as develop original content. Their most recent film, the documentary short Zion--directed by Floyd Russ whose commercial/branded content home is Tool of North America--premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival and was acquired by Netflix.
