Creative studio Makiné has retained Laura Coones of Moccasin Management to help lead its business development initiatives in the entertainment space, where the studio has created integrated campaigns, promos, and network rebrands for Disney, Nuvo, and Fuse, along with bespoke social content for brands like Amazon Music and T-Mobile.
“Laura not only knows the entertainment business inside and out, but she’s also a strong woman and kind human being — qualities that match perfectly with Makiné’s driving creative spirit and work practices,” says Maria Alejandra Padua, Makiné Co-Founder/Executive Producer. “We both understand that every single project, no matter the size, is a chance to prove your skills and to shine. Together, we can push our capabilities to the max and build a bigger footprint for Makiné in this insanely fun industry.”
“Makiné is an industry powerhouse that brings creativity and thoughtfulness to everything they do,” adds Coones, who specializes in partnering agencies with TV networks, streaming services, film studios, and brands worldwide. “I look forward to developing more opportunities for them in the entertainment space. And as the industry moves towards a more inclusive playing field, I’m excited to be a part of that change with Makiné being an independent, female-owned and minority-accredited company under the awesome leadership of Maria Alejandra.”
