New production chief for Gaumont-Alphanim

The deputy MD of production financing and business development at French animation studio Gaumont-Alphanim is leaving after more than a decade, to be replaced by a Millimages exec.

Jérémy Fajner is exiting the company for an unspecified position elsewhere within the movie and TV industry. He is being replaced by Millimages head of production for series and animated movies Marc Dhrami, who joins Gaumont-Alphanim as head of production, financing and coproduction.

Fajner was Gaumont-Alphanim for 11 years, as was Dhrami with Millimages. In his new position, the latter will report into Gaumont-Alphanim MD Pierre Belaisch, who joined the company in September last year from Lagardere.
