EXCLUSIVE: Jax Media, an Imagine Entertainment company, is ceasing its development operations. I learned the announcement was made during a staff meeting yesterday. Moving forward, all development will be consolidated and handled through Imagine Television. Jax’s development team will be phased out by the end of the year, with executives headed up by Jax Head of TV Dave Binegar, who joined a year ago, and UK Creative Director Katie Gahamire, who joined in April.
The move marks Jax’s return to its original core business as a production services provider, which will continue under new production chief Yolanda T. Cochran, who has just been hired for the role, replacing Jake Fuller who stepped down to focus on independent production, primarily sports-related.
Also staying on are Hussain Casey-Ahmed, who joined the team in April and is leading production in the UK. John Nemeth and Morgan Howard, who oversee production in New York, are also staying on.
