Sony DADC UK hires Bottrill as head of studio

Sony DADC UK has added more expertise to their ever expanding work force by hiring Neil Bottrill, formally of Technicolor, who is joining their London-based team to become head of Studio.

Neil Bottrill was General Manager of Technicolor’s compression & authoring facility for seven years and has recently worked with NME on their HD VMD format launch.

Bottrill’s main focus will be the managing the studio on a day to day basis and expanding the services offered by Sony DADC UK post-production department to support Blu-ray interactive production.

Jo Radovic from Sony DADC’s authoring department will be working within Bottrill’s team and feels he will be an invaluable asset to the dynamics of the department. “We have expanded very rapidly in a short time frame and having Neil on board with his wealth of experience has helped us build a very strong team. We will be increasing our head count and services for post-production, DVD and Blu-ray authoring so it was vital to have Neil on board to ensure this happens smoothly.”
