Picture Mill

Founded in 1995 and located in a refurbished Hollywood automotive garage, Picture Mill is a conceptual design, branding, and production studio deeply rooted in the traditional tenets of graphic design and filmmaking. Over the last 15 years we have learned that there is no substitute for exceptional thinking combined with hard work. And that eventually, good really will triumph over evil.

Creative Director William Lebeda a graphic designer, animator and director who has worked in the field of entertainment design since the early 1990's. Since joining Picture Mill in 1995, William has designed and directed projects for motion pictures, advertising agencies and television. In 2007, William directed the 2nd Unit for M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening. He is particularly delighted to have been named the best and worst film title designer (The ID Forty, February 2003) for two wildly different projects: Panic Room for David Fincher, and Signs for M. Night Shyamalan. Previous to his experiences in California, William spent most of his youth in and around northern New Mexico. He used to draw a lot more than he does now.
