Jun 9, 2023
Bizet Media (the parent company of Milk VFX) acquires Dublin based High Wire Post Production.
A key part of the strategy of Bizet Media, the parent company of Milk VFX, is to develop a range of distinctive talent-led businesses operating across the VFX and production solutions space.
Having established an award winning platform in VFX through the acquisitions and growth of two Oscar and BAFTA winning studios, Milk VFX and Lola Post Production, High Wire represents the first step into the post production arena.
High Wire has over 25 years’ experience in delivering high end post production services for TV, Feature Film, Commercials and long form Documentaries. It has built its reputation on producing superb post production services in editing, grading, sound design and mixing, subtitling, audio description and graphics.
The Milk VFX family itself has been establishing a strong platform for growth in Europe through the recent announcements of Milk Ireland, Milk France and last year the acquisition of Lola Post , the Oscar winning VFX Studio in Soho. This has been underpinned by a high quality slate of feature and episodic projects during another extremely busy year, including The Woman King (Sony Tristar), The Swimmers (Netflix), the soon to launch Good Omens Season 2 (Amazon), Meg 2 (Warner Bros.), Citadel (Amazon), Dangerous Liaisons (Starz/Lionsgate) and Dinosaurs: The Final Day with David Attenborough (BBC).
Jag Mundi, Executive Chairman, Bizet Media said: “Having established a distinctive and growing platform in VFX, this enables us to expand our capabilities into post production. High Wire has expertise and reputation in the local and international market which positions us ideally to provide additional complimentary solutions to our clients, with a trusted partner.”
Mark Quinn, Founder and Managing Director, High Wire said: “Mike and I are delighted with this development. High Wire moves to the next level in high end post production because we now have the missing ingredient… just add Milk!”.
Ciaran Crowley, Creative Director, Milk VFX Ireland adds: “We are delighted to see our group further commit to Ireland. Mark and Mike and their team at High Wire have an exceptional track record and an enviable network in Dublin built up over more than two decades. This is an exciting time for us all, tapping into the abundant creative talent thriving in Ireland.”
