In addition to this exciting news, Kevin Vale has been named Executive Director, Feature & Episodic, East Coast, after leading the picture post department at Harbor since 2015.

With recent additions of top tier colorists, we’re excited to continue bolstering the leadership in our production team to support the artistry. Liz’s background in production and proven track record of building trusted relationships with both artists and clients makes her a natural fit for Harbor.
Appointing Kevin Vale to head of Feature & Episodic on the East Coast is a natural and welcome progression. Under his tenure in Picture Post, the department quadrupled in size, allowing us to offer more to our clients at the most elevated level of workflow and service.
