History and Founding
editMSC was founded by Paul S.L. Yates and Netto Fernandes, during furlough from their jobs at The Ritz London hotel amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. This downtime has been attributed as catalyzing their efforts to launch the company. Although named after the cinematic term “mise en scène,” the founders' are quoted as being inspired by "mise en place" whilst they worked at the Ritz.[1]
Projects and Acquisitions
editSince its founding, MSC has managed global sales for several films. In 2021, it handled global sales for The True Don Quixote, starring Danny Huston, Jack Kilmer, and Tim Blake Nelson.[3] That same year, MSC also managed the global sales for American Reject, featuring Kathleen Elizabeth Monteleone and Tim O'Leary, at the Cannes Film Market. In 2022, it secured global sales for The Magnificent Meyersons, which stars Emmy-nominated actor Elizabeth Perkins and Jeff Perry. In 2024, MSC took on global sales for Driven, starring Rebecca Henderson and Liza Colón-Zayas[4][5][6][7][8][9]
