AI-Focused Management Firm Collage Adds Kelly Miller And Jack Styne As Partners

EXCLUSIVE: Collage, the AI management firm launched last month by former UTA film agent Dante DeSario and veteran media investor Michael Lambert, has added Kelly Miller and Jack Styne as partners.

Miller will work on expanding Collage’s presence in the television business, while Styne will specialize in film.

In a time of rising demand for AI-native production, Collage is focused on connecting studios, streamers, filmmakers and brands with a curated roster of AI-native production companies. After bringing the parties together, the new firm will aim to provide them with business development, operations, technology partnerships and capital.

Before joining Collage, Miller held exec posts at Hulu, Fifth Season, and BBC Studios. Throughout her career, she has directed billions of dollars in deal flow covering strategic partnerships, international joint ventures, acquisitions, and development. Initiatives she has helped oversee have included joint ventures with Exile and CJ ENM, the Doctor Who partnership alongside Disney+, and FX on Hulu.

Styne launched his career in CAA’s Global Client Strategy Group before moving to 30WEST, where he focused on sales and production finance for titles such as Tiger King, Late Night, Fyre, and Destroyer. He went on to establish and scale the entertainment division at customer engagement platform Amplify AI, which created major campaigns for Netflix’s Squid Game, Universal’s M3GAN, Bud Light, and McDonald’s.

“Kelly and Jack bring deep experience in how films and series actually get made, and they can tell a filmmaker, showrunner, or an executive exactly where generative production helps and where it doesn’t,” DeSario said in a statement. “Trust and candor are the whole business.”
