Animation studio Golden Wolf has promoted long-time executive producer Dotti Sinnott to the new title of managing director for the studio while adding Heidi Stephenson as head of production, and elevating Tan Jones to exec producer.
Sinnott originally joined the studio’s London-based office in 2015 as a freelance producer where she oversaw projects for Nike, Disney, Ubisoft, and more. In 2017, she assumed the title of EP and spearheaded the studio’s expansion into New York City. Her leadership played an integral role for the studio’s transition into remote production during the COVID-19 pandemic. Now in her seventh year with Golden Wolf, Sinnott will now oversee the business operations for both the New York and London offices as managing director.
Stephenson, a newcomer to the animation studio, has experience spanning from animation production all the way to broadcasting and will manage internal production across both offices as the head of production. Executive producer Jones assists in managing the production team and has overseen projects for brands such as Nike and Adidas. A fellow Golden Wolf veteran, Jones’ promotion includes the new responsibility of spearheading all new business ventures for the studio globally.
“I couldn’t be more excited to have Dotti, Heidi and Tan by my side as we take Golden Wolf to the next stage of our evolution,” said Golden Wolf founder Ingi Erlingsson. “Having been my right hand woman for over half a decade, Dotti is the perfect person to lead this exceptional team into uncharted territory as we broaden our horizons into music, AI and more.”
Golden Wolf recently celebrated its ninth anniversary earlier this month. The studio has 27 staff members total, with team members hailing from countries around the world.
