Annapurna Promotes Chelsea Barnard to Film President

“Chelsea’s specific eye for content that supports and enhances the Annapurna brand is invaluable and I could not be happier to watch her step in to a role that I have always hoped and envisioned for her,” Ellison said in a statement.

Barnard’s promotion comes on the heels of a slew of hires at Annapurna — like Marc Weinstock as President, Sue Naegle as President of the new Annapurna TV, David Kaminow promotion to President of Marketing and landing longtime distribution executive Erik Lomis.
