Skydance is a multimedia entertainment studio that produces feature films, television series, interactive games, and animation. The company employs approximately 215 people and has recorded 33 recent hires against 28 departures, indicating steady but measured growth. Its lean headcount relative to its slate of high-profile projects suggests an emphasis on strategic staffing and cross-functional collaboration across its creative, production, and business units.
Skydance’s largest employee group is classified under “Other” with 113 individuals who cover a range of creative, production, and support functions that do not fall neatly into a single traditional department. Business Management follows with 54 employees, underscoring the company’s focus on financing, legal, and administrative oversight of its entertainment portfolio. Operations accounts for 43 employees, reflecting the need for logistical coordination across film, TV, and game projects. Smaller specialty teams include Consulting (2), Publishing & Editorial (1), Real Estate (1), and Quality (1), while Program & Project Management, Healthcare, and Risk & Compliance currently have no dedicated headcount, indicating that these responsibilities are likely absorbed by other groups or outsourced.
Skydance maintains a strong Southern California presence, with roughly 148 employees based in Los Angeles—its largest hub for production, post-production, and corporate functions. Additional offices are spread across nearby entertainment centers such as Santa Monica, Burbank, Culver City, Marina del Rey, Calabasas, and Glendale, collectively housing just over 21 employees. The company also supports an international footprint with 8 employees in London, enabling access to European talent and co-production opportunities. A further 18 employees work remotely or in locations not tied to a formal office, giving Skydance added flexibility in assembling project-specific teams.
