“MOR is the natural next step, combining our individual strengths into a company engineered for our industry today,” says Rossi Cannon. “We back everything we do with years of industry knowledge so our clients can explore new ground and inspired ideas with confidence. From live action to new immersive concepts, our talent pool proven success and a passionate approach.”
