Sahara's Geon Studios CEO Madhusudhanan quits

MUMBAI: Sahara-owned Geon Studios CEO and VFX supervisor N Madhusudhanan has quit the organisation.

Madhusudhanan said, "Yes, I have moved on from Geon." He, however, refused to divulge where he would be joining.
 
Madhusudanan is the last among the four founders who have quit the Studio. It may be noted that producers Barrie Osborne and Michael Peyser and former chief technology officer at Weta Digital Jon Labrie were the co-founders along with Mudhusudhanan.

Sahara had acquired the company in 2010, following which the three co-founders exited. Madhusudanan took some time before deciding to quit.

The VFX stalwart, one of the pioneers of the Indian Visual effects and computer animation industry, has supervised and produced visual effects of more than 60 Indian and nine Hollywood films like Lord of The Rings - The Return of The King, Click, Stormbreaker, Spiderman 3, The Warrior‘s Way and the recent Gulliver‘s Travels. In all the films, he was instrumental in highlighting India‘s artistic skills by producing few very effective shots.

Madhusudhanan is one of the early Indian visual effects experts who got elected as an active member of Visual Effects Society (VES) in Los Angeles. He is currently the VES Ambassador to India.
