The YDA has unveiled its first wave of jurors from Europe and Asia-Pacific, with the remaining jurors to be announced in the coming weeks. The list includes an array of production professionals working across film, TV and commercials content.

Commenting on the announcement, YDA President, Francois Chilot explains: “these jury members represent some of the biggest and most creative companies from the two regions we’ve announced so far. Their expertise and understanding around new directing talent, and what it takes to shine in the current directorial climate, will ensure that the work awarded at this year’s YDA will be both brilliant and deserving.
