“I am thrilled to carry on working with producers and to put to good use the experience I acquired at the Association des producteurs de film et de télévision du Québec (APFTQ). For me Telefilm is a natural step that will allow me to develop my relationships with the industry from another perspective, that of a public policy maker,” the new director pointed out.

In addition, Jean-Daniel will serve as a representative for the television sector, Quebec office, on the Policy and Procedures committee (P&P), which was set up following the industry-wide survey undertaken by the Corporation. The goal of this committee is to help trim, simplify and standardize Telefilm’s various procedures.
“Jean-Daniel served in an acting capacity during a time of great change at Telefilm, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank him. As a result of his professionalism, the portfolios were handled with the utmost diligence,” added Michel Pradier.
