Dariusz Jablonski, founder and producer at Apple Film Production in Poland, has been re-elected as president of the EPC board, continuing his leadership for a second consecutive term.

Carlotta Calori of Indigo Film in Italy and Mariela Besuievsky of Tornasol Media in Spain, have also been re-elected as VPs of the board.

Pandora da Cunha Telles, producer at Ukbar Filmes in Portugal, will continue in her role as treasurer.

In addition, two new VPs have joined the executive committee: Paula Vaccaro, founder and producer at Pinball London in the UK, and Gudny Hummelvoll, producer at Hummelfilm in Norway and who was the EPC president between 2020 and 2024.

All executive committee members will serve a one-year mandate, working collectively to represent the interests of independent European producers and further the EPC’s mission to “foster collaboration, advocate for industry needs and promote excellence in audiovisual production across Europe.”

It comes after Julie-Jeanne Régnault was appointed managing director at Paris-headquartered EPC earlier this year, replacing Alexandra Lebret, who stepped down after more than two decades in the post.

Jablonski said: “I am truly honoured to continue leading the EPC and to work alongside

such a strong and inspiring executive committee team. Each of them brings invaluable experience and perspective to our shared mission.

“With their support, and that of our dedicated managing director, Julie-Jeanne Régnault, I am confident we will rise to the challenges ahead and continue to strengthen the voice of independent producers across Europe.”
