Creative studio Carbon welcomes Chloe Sedelmaier as EP in New York. Sedelmaier joins from Nice Shoes, and has an outstanding history working in sales and business development. At Carbon, Sedelmaier will focus on East Coast client relationships across the studio’s work in design, animation, live-action production, and VFX. She will also work closely with Ryan Smith, EP of sister company Whitehouse Post, on packaging editorial, color, and finish under one roof.
“We’ve known and had our eye on Chloe for years, having crossed paths many times in the past,” says Carbon MD Phil Linturn. “She is a highly connected and successful business development EP. I’m incredibly excited to marry our amazing work and talent with her network and opportunities. She has a great track record of being loved by clients and her teams alike.”
“I’ve followed Carbon, the people, and the work for years,” says Sedelmaier. “It reigns supreme as some of the best work out there, done by some of the coolest people. Being able to work somewhere that not only offers all service solutions, but excels in each of them is a dream come true.”
Sedelmaier has been working in strategy and business development roles at creative studios for over a decade. “As an EP, I think it’s paramount to be approachable, collaborative, and strategic. You need people to feel comfortable coming to you with not only the exciting stuff, but the tricky stuff as well. All three of those things come into play daily, and if you’re missing even one of those qualities, you’ll drown – you have to wear all of the hats. It makes my heart sing to hear a client tell me that we turned a really tricky project into one of their most positive experiences. That can only happen when you have a rock-solid team and creative collaboration from every single person involved. To work with great people on great work, and look back and say ‘wow… we did that’ is the best feeling.”
“Chloe is popular for a reason,” ends Linturn. “People like her because she has a great energy and understands that this an industry based on trust and earned relationships. I’m so thrilled to have her here making sure our clients get the best work and have the best experience.
