Crossroads Films is going for a major expansion.
The indie feature producer and full-service commercial and music video production company is launching a television division, tapping Endeavor agent Conan Smith and reality producer/director Rico Martinez as executive producers and Brooke Posch as director of development. They join executive producer Katherine Dore.
The company also has beefed up its film department ranks with the hires of Claire Pacacha as head of feature development and Eunice Lee as vp production and development.
Meanwhile, former head of feature development David Title will now oversee Crossroads' digital content efforts as director of new media.
Crossroads had a feature deal with United Artists, developing films like "Igby Goes Down", until UA's sale to Sony Pictures. Since then, Crossroads launched the Deciders, a private development fund with an annual budget of $1.2 million. Crossroads' behind-the-scenes work in television through some of its divisions included Headlight Design + Visual Effects. With the Deciders up and running, the time felt right to take the company's presence in the TV business to the next level, Crossroads topper Dan Lindau said.
