The Mill has appointed three new managing directors across leading divisions in the U.S. and Europe. 
 
Anastasia Von Rahl has been promoted to managing director in The Mill’s Los Angeles location where she will oversee the studio and client experience across all capabilities, from traditional VFX to in-house directed creative and experiential work. 

Von Rahl has been an integral part of the leadership team since she joined The Mill in 2013. In her previous role as director of production, she was pivotal in securing and overseeing award-winning VFX projects, including numerous top-ranked Super Bowl campaigns. These projects, among many others, have led Von Rahl to develop and strengthen strong client relationships with agencies, brands and production companies alike. 

Misha Stanford Harris, previously head of production, has been appointed as managing director for the London based studio. And Justin Stiebel has taken on the newly created role of managing director in The Mill’s recently opened boutique studio in Berlin. 

Josh Mandel, The Mill CEO, said, “As we further embrace our global capabilities and structure, our aim is to build a leadership team that both helps us maintain the continuity in people and practices that have driven our success while focusing on future opportunities through growth and evolution. Anastasia, Justin and Misha have all been strong voices within The Mill who bring incredible passion for people, craft and growth to their roles. Together they represent many years of experience that will help us navigate the evolving world of VFX and define our growth through new brand partnerships.”
