Chris Lutz Named General Manager of New Operation Providing Media Management Services for Ad Agencies and Advertisers
FilmCore Distribution will also be able to tap into the resources of other Ascent Media Group service providers, including its Content Management facility in Northvale, New Jersey, Rogers added.
To head its new facility in New York, FilmCore Distribution has hired Chris Lutz as General Manager. He will oversee all day-to-day operations and manage sales and marketing efforts.
Lutz brings broad experience in media distribution for both foreign and domestic markets. He previously spent three years as a Director at Ascent Media Group Content Management servicing the distribution needs of motion picture studios, program distributors, cable networks and other accounts. His background also includes five years as Director of Operations at DG Systems, a provider of media distribution services to the advertising industry.
In his new role, Lutz will seek to extend FilmCore Distribution’s leadership position by growing a full service operation in the country’s largest advertising market. “FilmCore has a long history for excellence and the opportunity to establish a strong presence in New York is very enticing to me,” he said. “FilmCore’s reputation and client base, as well as the resources of Ascent Media, provide a great foundation to build on.”
Lutz is a graduate of William Paterson University in Wayne, New Jersey. He began his career with U.N. Productions, New York, and later joined Rainbow Advertising, a subsidiary of Cablevision. At Rainbow, he directed and produced television spots for advertisers in the New York/New Jersey area.
