Ease Entertainment Services
Ease provides the only studio-grade, all-in-one production management platform in the industry. Every studio and major independent production company in North America has used at least one Ease Entertainment solution. The Ease Entertainment platform consists of its state-of-the-art production finance applications, coupled with full-service payroll; its unique portfolio of physical production automation and development tools, called Scenechronize™; and the Ease Studio Hub, its studio production information management and security system.
Santa Monica-based Bison Capital Partners IV, LP completed the sale of its security holdings in Ease Entertainment Services, LLC, in conjunction with the Company’s sale of certain assets to Entertainment Partners.
“Bison Capital was the ideal strategic partner to take Ease to the next level. Doug Trussler, Kurt Pilecki and the entire Bison team’s expertise and input was invaluable to Mike and me, and was a key component in helping us to increase Ease’s profitability,”
Ruben Rodriguez, President of Ease
