The Colony has signed Hughes William Thompson to its roster of directors available for commercial content creation.
Thompson was awarded the 2014 Young Director Award at Cannes for his short film “A New Man.” The film was made possible with a grant from the Kevin Spacey Foundation. The foundation became one of his first clients when it subsequently commissioned Thompson to direct content for them.
Thompson’s beautifully crafted films display a storytelling vision based in narrative and performance.
“I’m very happy to be joining The Colony,” says Thompson. “It feels like a really great place to be able to use your voice and it’s great to also have all this infrastructure already plugged in, including an on-site post studio. It’s like a playground in which to create, and that’s hard to find.”

Simian Gets An Evolutionary Boost For Collaboration, Reveals “Teams”
Simian, the showreel-building, review & approval, and production asset management platform used globally by creative leaders, is kicking off this fall season with a substantial leap forward for collaboration and project management โ with more updates on the way during the holidays!
The new feature, aptly dubbed โTeamsโ, makes it easier than ever for users to give project responsibilities to team members and clients alike. โYou can never have too many options when it comes to permission levels,โ says Jay Brooks, Simianโs Chief Technology Officer. โTeams provides a streamlined way to assign multiple users to a project at once.โ
โTeams are very powerful, but creating one is effortless,โ Brian Atton, Simianโs Chief Operating Officer explains. โSimply enter a Team name, add members, and then apply the newly made Team to any desired project. You can even invite temporary guests without changing settings for other projects or needing to create a new Team.โ
โWe love helping our clients by providing efficient tools to improve their workflow, and this has been a frequently requested feature as of late,โ shares Kellie Atton, Head of Sales at Simian. โIt feels great to get Teams out into the wild because I know itโs going to be tremendously helpful to everyone who uses itโ.
Teams is now available exclusively to Simianโs enterprise clients. Simian plans to release more product upgrades and enhancements during Q4 2024 and 2025 for enterprise and non-enterprise users, continuing its ongoing evolution as the industryโs leading production asset management solution.
