LOS ANGELES - Californer -- FuseFX, an award-winning visual effects company, has promoted Johnny Fisk from Head of Studio LA and Global VP of Production to President of FuseFX.

Johnny brings over 20 years of experience to the table from small start-up operations to large-scale global studios, having worked as an artist, manager, producer, and in executive positions across a wide scope of productions. After rising through the executive ranks at Deluxe, he joined FuseFX and took on the role of Executive Producer - Los Angeles. Later he was promoted to Head of Studio LA and Global VP of Production.
