Make Management founder Hannah Satzke joins 3 Arts
Hannah Satzke, founder of UK-based Make Management, has joined 3 Arts Entertainment as a manager. Satzke launched Make Management in 2019 and built a roster of comedy, writing and directing talent across British film and television. Her clients have included writers and performers from shows on the BBC, Channel 4 and Netflix. 3 Arts, which has offices in Los Angeles, New York and London, has been active in expanding its international footprint. The hire gives 3 Arts a stronger pipeline into UK comedy and scripted talent.
THE BREAKDOWN
3 Arts continues to acquire individual managers and small firms rather than building rosters from scratch. Agents should watch whether Satzke's clients get faster access to U.S. development deals and whether 3 Arts cross-pollinates UK comedy writers with its American unscripted and scripted departments. For UK talent, the move signals that U.S. management firms are still willing to pay for established relationships with local writers and performers. Managers at smaller UK shops should evaluate whether now is the right time to sell or partner before the market for boutique firms cools. Competitors should expect 3 Arts to make similar hires in Australia and Canada.
