Keyon Tehrani

Keyon Tehrani has over 7 years of experience across two globally-recognized independent studios working across premium television and film development, production, business affairs, and distribution. After studying film and television at UCSB, he briefly served as an Associate Producer on CBS lifestyle series THIS IS SF/THIS IS LA before beginning a permanent full-time position at Lionsgate Entertainment working in a new department, Strategic Partnerships, which worked cross-functionally across film, television, distribution and marketing to find and execute on new revenue streams across the company's vast IP portfolio. He then moved over to film financier Village Roadshow Entertainment Group (MATRIX, OCEAN'S 11, MAD MAX, JOKER, WONKA) in 2019 and supported the company's new strategy by joining the scripted television development team as they began their journey as an independent studio.

Keyon supported series development of numerous IPs in the company's content library including HEATHERS, DONNIE DARKO, ARLINGTON ROAD, and NASH BRIDGES to name a few, the latter of which was made into a TV movie/backdoor pilot at NBCU which he supported production on as well from the studio side. Additionally, he acted as a point person for the company's deal with Happy Madison Television, developing over two dozen projects in partnership with the iconic production company. He also acted as a back-up point person to the TV team's other deals including MOONSHOT (Bryan Cranston), CONTENT CARTEL (Kevin Garnett), and ABSO-LUTELY (Tim & Eric) among others. He supported projects including the innovative comedy series TIGHTROPE for Roku with Bryan Cranston and Ty Burrell, which is in pre-production, as well as WE MIGHT REGRET THIS, a 6-episode comedy co-production with the BBC which was quickly picked up for two additional seasons.
