Visual effects house Zoic Studios has added Jeff Blodgett as executive producer. Blodgett has over two decades of experience as an EP in VFX/animation, with lengthy stints at studios Sight Effects, Radium/Reel FX and Brickyard VFX. Blodgett joins current Zoic commercial division EPs Ian Unterreiner and Matt Thunell. Over the past two years, Zoic has gained traction and put considerable resources into experiential work and advanced visualization research and development. The addition of Blodgett comes at a time of growth and further diversification of the studio that has offered award-winning visual effects and design for film, television and advertising since 2002.
Hailing from Massachusetts, Blodgett headed West to follow his creative passion to work in the entertainment industry. He joined Sight Effects in 1996, spending nearly 10 years producing over 300 commercials for the shop, including the original BMW Films out of Fallon, directed by top Hollywood talent including Guy Ritchie. Blodgett moved on to serve as an EP of commercials at Radium/Reel FX, working on spots for such clients at Target, BMW, Pepsi and Fidelity. He came on board with Brickyard VFX in 2010, spending five years as an EP for the company with offices in Santa Monica, Calif., and Boston.
