“I’m very happy to be joining SPRING Production during this exciting period of growth,” said Bird. “What attracted me to SPRING were the people and the agility of the company. They bring something unique to the table and are exploring AI collaboration and automation solutions. I can’t wait to get involved. I’m also excited about how this will benefit our clients and the valuable work we can do for them.”
Bird’s extensive production background and proven ability to deliver outstanding results for clients means he will play a pivotal role in driving SPRING Production’s expansion and solidifying its position as a leading creative production partner.
