Neon has elevated Andrew Brown to President of Digital Distribution. The exec who has served as SVP of Digital Strategy, Marketing and Distribution for Neon since 2017 will also continue to serve as Co-President of Decal — the home entertainment distribution company launched by Neon and Bleecker Street last year.

Brown manages Neon’s award-winning library, also overseeing its annual Neon FYC DVD box set and the direct-to-consumer digital portal Neon Cinema.

The Academy Award-winning studio formed Decal under his leadership, with Brown also overseeing the launch of its home entertainment division.   “Andrew’s knowledge of the players, the platforms and the history of cinema all converge to make him a one-of-a-kind executive,” said Neon CEO and Founder, Tom Quinn. “He’s been here from the beginning and we look forward to continuing to grow NEON together.” During his 20+ years in the film and TV industry, Brown has been at the forefront of the digital video business, starting with Rainbow Media (now Altice) and iNDEMAND.

He took over the expansion and development of Time Warner Cable’s Video On Demand service in 2006, making it into one of the nation’s largest streaming video platforms.
