Executive producer brings a wealth of visual storytelling expertise to Sequence’s Australian arm.
Creative studio The Sequence Group has appointed Melissa Benavides as executive producer of its Melbourne office.
She brings a decade’s worth of experience in animation, experiential events, motion graphics and live-action VFX to Sequence.
Benavides has contributed to high-profile television and commercial projects across the Australian creative industry. Her achievements include Australian television’s largest live graphics package for the Logie Awards; the opening titles for the 30th anniversary of Neighbours, and work on popular Australian shows such as the Catching Milat miniseries and INXS: Never Tear Us Apart.
Benavides has also worked in virtual reality for documentary Jafri (featured as part of the Melbourne International Film Festival’s inaugural VR program); experiential content for MSFW, and live projection work for Woolworths at the Australian Tennis Open.
“Melissa is an incredibly important addition to the Melbourne team,” says Ian Kirby, founder and creative director at The Sequence Group. “At Sequence, we don’t just produce one kind of content. From ice rink projections to hit show opening titles, we deliver across the board. Melissa is perfectly capable, no matter the project.”
“I’m thrilled to join the Sequence team, strengthening the output both in Australia and across the North Pacific at Sequence Vancouver,” says Benavides. “I look forward to delivering new and unique projects from animation to live action and beyond.”
