Electric Entertainment expands its production arm with new promotions and hires

Dean Devlin’s Electric Entertainment had a very successful year in 2022, having three new original series within its production slate – SYFY’s “The Ark,” and Amazon Freevee’s “Leverage: Redemption” and “Almost Paradise.” As a result of this busy slate all within a 12-month period of time, Electric has expanded its production arm ramping up its capacity for 2023.

The expansion includes the promotion of Mark Franco to Head of Production, who joined Electric Entertainment in 2004 on its maiden project “The Librarians,” as Visual FX Supervisor/Producer. In his new role, Mark will oversee Production on all projects focused on the workflow and processes from camera through post production.

Joining Electric’s production team is industry veteran Brandon W. Lambdin as VP of Physical Production. In this newly created position, Brandon will handle all aspects of production, budgeting and scheduling for Electric’s TV and film projects.

Cynthia Hajj has been promoted to Production Executive. Prior to joining Electric, she was co-creator of Homage Arts and Production, a boutique production company, where she produced a plethora of short-form content for clients including Warner, Island Def Jam, RCA, Bicycle Music Group, and Interscope.

Erica Small adds to Electric’s production team expansion as the newly appointed Senior Counsel, Business and Legal Affairs. She joins Electric from Skybound, LLC, where she was Associate Counsel, Business and Legal Affairs.

Dean Devlin, CEO of Electric comments, “Not only am I excited to announce this major expansion of our production arm, I feel blessed to have such a talented team working with us. Each and every one of these promotions is a result of a tremendous amount of hard work and dedication. Mark has shown exemplary work since our first collaboration and Cynthia’s dedication and expertise has helped the company get to this point of extreme growth. And now, with the addition of Brandon, who I have worked side by side with on so many of our TV programs and films, and Erica with her legal expertise, we are certain to reach levels beyond my expectations.”
