Eric Roth has announced that he's set to retire from his position as Executive Director of the Visual Effects Society.
After almost two decades serving as the Visual Effects Society’s Executive Director, Eric Roth has announced his retirement in a new statement. Not only is he stepping down from his esteemed position, but he’ll also be retiring from the entertainment business as a whole. News of his retirement comes just before the Society’s 25th anniversary, something Roth acknowledges as part of his reasoning behind the decision.
In a well-thought-out and artfully crafted letter, Roth revealed his primary reasons for his retirement being to enjoy more time with his family as well as “traveling, and pursuing my next chapter.” The creative also cited underlying health issues as being one of his determinates. He refers to his time leading as VES’ Executive Director as “a true honor and the pinnacle” of his career.
