MONTREAL --- Telescene Film Group president Robin Spry announced Wednesday that the Montreal-based company has hired two new executives to consolidate the management team following Telescene's recent public offering.

Claire Benoit, a Montreal attorney, has been named director of business and legal affairs, and Vern Di Lembo has been appointed chief financial officer.

Telescene's recent productions include the erotic-horror anthology series "The Hunger" and the Twentieth Television-distributed teen series "Student Bodies," which is currently lensing in Montreal.
