Emmy Award-winning producer Kane Lee heads content development and strategy for Baobab Studios and has served as Executive Producer for the virtual reality studio’s groundbreaking works, including the 2017 Emmy Award winner Invasion! featuring Ethan Hawke, as well as the 2017 Unity Vision Award winner Asteroids! featuring Elizabeth Banks, and most recently, the highly anticipated VR experience Rainbow Crow, starring John Legend. He masterminded the first-time ever adaptation of VR IP (Invasion!) into a traditional flat screen Hollywood feature film. Usually with new technology mediums, IP goes in the opposite direction, from Hollywood to the new medium, but Roth Kirschenbaum Films (Maleficent, Alice in Wonderland, Snow White & Huntsmen) is partnering with Baobab to bring Invasion! to the silver screen. Lee has always led at the intersection of technology and media. He is lead producer of the 20th Century Fox animated feature film based upon the Academy Award-nominated short, The Dam Keeper, and is on the producing teams for projects ranging from The School for Good and Evil at Universal Pictures to Frozen writer/director Jennifer Lee's The Way Between to the international award-winning children’s series Spooksville. Previously Lee served as Vice President Development and Production for Jane Startz Productions and worked on films including Horton Hears A Who!, Ice Age: The Meltdown, and Robots for Blue Sky Studios / 20th Century Fox Animation. He is an advisor in interactive media for the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.
