Sudden departure for Quantel's chief
Article Abstract:
Quantel's Jeff Meadows, the company's managing director for almost a decade, will step down from his position on Aug. 7, 1998. Meadows, credited for the company's strategy of interfacing its products with other third-party manufacturers and for the firm's recent ability to compete with its industry rivals, belied rumors of an internal discord in the firm's management for his abrupt departure and said that the move is part of a long-term plan. Meadows is expected to be replaced by either Dale Fry, operations director, Chris Whiteley, commercial director, or Steve Owen, product marketing head.

O'Brien quits CFC for stateside role
Article Abstract:
Computer Film Co. has announced the resignation of director of production Alison O'Brien effective by the middle of December 1998. O'Brien's decision to quit was made because of her desire to work on a wider variety of films and not be limited to just special effects. She hopes to sign up with US special effects supervisor Richard Yuricich in making the effects for the Mission Impossible sequel. Meanwhile, the company is considering the possibility of getting a general manager with an additional task in special effects instead of enlisting a replacement for O'brien.
