About

One autumn day in 2005, designer/animator John Robson looked up from his computer screen to realize he'd been so wrapped up in his work that he had missed lunch yet again. He decided to form his own studio called Late Lunch, named after his habit of prioritizing his creative endeavors.

Since then, John has offered his skills as a creative director, designer, and animator for numerous clients and studios in the advertising, music video, and live concert visual industries, garnering several awards, including an Emmy Nomination and several MTV VMA’s and ProMax BDA Awards.

Late Lunch took a hiatus during the pandemic while John spent 3 years on the director’s roster at Laika’s commercial spinoff House Special and 1 year at Samsung’s digital human and avatar think tank, Neon. Now Late Lunch is back in full strength and always looking for new collaborations.

In addition to commercial and post production work, Late Lunch has been collaborating with producer Vinicio Espinosa for over a decade on short films and feature film and series development. A former MGM executive, Vinicio has produced several feature films for Latin America and is currently co-producing a Brazilian sci fi feature with “City of God” creator Fernando Mereilles, starring Rodrigo Santoro (“300”).
