Highly accomplished production/post collective raises bar for commercial production excellence in the U.S. Southeast and beyond
The leaders from Fivestone Studios are very proud to announce the launch of Bella, a full-service production studio dedicated to live-action production and post. Fivestone's Founder and Chief Creative Officer Traylor Woodall and Chief Operations Officer Brian Altman confirmed Bella’s launch under the leadership of Partner and Executive Producer David Perry.
A producer at Fivestone since 2015, Perry quickly assumed oversight of the production of story-driven commercials and branded content for the studio’s clientele, while continuing to develop and produce film and TV projects. Serving brands including The United States Air Force, AbbVie, Goldman Sachs, Publix, and Salesforce and their agency partners over these years, Perry’s passion for collaborating with stellar partners and creating compelling stories for international audiences built a solid foundation of creative excellence. Today, Bella launches on the strength of Perry’s vision and the immense talents he has brought to the table, all of which allows Fivestone to focus on pioneering immersive multimedia developments.
Effective immediately, Bella is the exclusive home for highly accomplished and multitalented directors Anthony Pellino, Jeremy Liebovitch, and Robert Adamo. With a combined track record of top-tier representation and breakthrough work for a Who’s Who of leading brands and agencies, these premier talents will now be central to Bella’s collaborations. The same is true for Bella’s roster editors, who include Brandon Roten, Christian Whittemore, Ken Conrad, and Tim Moore. Notably, Conrad is also well known as a Colorist, and Moore is an accomplished Flame artist.
Bella’s representation currently includes Devine Reps on the U.S. West Coast, and Jack Reed Reps in the Southern U.S.
“Bella is a unique expression of David's passion, creativity and vision, multiplied by the A level roster of talents he has brought together,” Woodall began. “Together, they bring customer-focused solutions to every project. They listen, collaborate, and solve problems in extraordinary ways, assuring our clients of top-level creative and deliverables that answer their biggest challenges.”
“David’s tireless pursuit of great storytelling, team building, and beautiful filmmaking is a wonder to behold,” Altman added. “We are truly excited for him and all the talents and clients who are going to benefit from Bella’s superpowers.”
According to Perry, “The launch of Bella marks an exciting evolution for Fivestone Studios, enabling us to specialize and excel in our respective areas while maintaining a shared mission of creating exceptional work. With Bella focusing on live-action content and Fivestone concentrating on animation and immersive projects, we will leverage all assets and resources to serve the needs of our clients.”
