TransPerfect, one of the largest providers of language and AI solutions for global businesses, announced it has acquired two France-based Technicolor Group studios: MPC and The Mill. The financial terms of the transactions were not disclosed.
MPC Paris is a post-production and visual effects studio for the film and episodic industry. Their recent work included Oscar-winning films Anatomy of a Fall and Emilia Pérez. The Mill Paris is a full-service creative content studio for the advertising and brand experience industries.
The MPC and The Mill brands will continue to be used and will become divisions of TransPerfect Media. MPC is led by studio head Beatrice Bauwens, and The Mill is headed by Managing Director Fabien Godenèche, both of whom will continue in their leadership roles and join the senior management team of TransPerfect Media.
Like the recently acquired Technicolor Games division, MPC and The Mill join TransPerfect as the former Technicolor Group companies that are now part of the TransPerfect Global Group.
Advisor: TransPerfect was represented in the transaction by Coblence avocats.
