Cindi Rice

Cindi brings with her many years of creative development, brand management, and licensing expertise. She began working for TSR, Inc. as a designer and editor for Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) in 1995, where she first learned the process of creating complex, in-depth storylines as well as unique and powerful intellectual properties. Then, when Wizards of the Coast purchased TSR in 1997, she was promoted into the brand management team and put in charge of the D&D campaign settings. By the time Hasbro purchased Wizards of the Coast in 1999, she had also been granted responsibility over business development and licensing for the entire roleplaying game business.

In 2001, Cindi transferred to Hasbro’s entertainment division in Los Angeles, where she managed the entertainment rights for all of Hasbro’s fantasy, science fiction, action, and horror brands. Then, in 2002, Cindi founded Critical Hits, which served as the entertainment licensing agency for many game and toy companies, including Wizards of the Coast, Hasbro, White Wolf Publishing, and Pinnacle Entertainment Group, among others. In 2004, Cindi has merged Critical Hits into Epic Level Entertainment, which she formed with John Frank Rosenblum. Now, she and her partner produce live-action and animated projects for film, television and the internet for both studios and the independent market. In addition to her business development and licensing responsibilities, Cindi has taken up the Producer mantle on Epic Level's projects, as well as consulting on numerous studio and independent productions.
