Interior Night 工作室负责人 Charu Desodt 出任 BAFTA 游戏委员会主席

Desodt succeeds former Larian studio head Tara Saunders, who is now senior people partner at Lego Digital Play

Interior Night studio head Charu Desodt has been appointed chair of the BAFTA Games Committee.

Desodt succeeds former Larian studio head Tara Saunders, who has since joined Lego Digital Play as senior people partner.

"As my tenure as chair of the BAFTA Games Committee and member of the BAFTA Board of Trustees comes to a close, I want to express my deepest gratitude to everyone who made this journey so unforgettable over the last 10 years," said Saunders.

Desodt has over 25 years of industry experience, including senior production roles at Microsoft, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, and Preloaded. She is also a member of the UK Video Games Council.

She joined Interior/Night in 2018 as production director and became studio director in December 2022.

Desodt is one of three new committee chairs elected to BAFTA's Board of Trustees, along with Hilary Rosen as Chair of the Academy.

Rosen, UKTV's director of commissioning, has been a BAFTA Television Committee member since 2021 and later served as its chair. She succeeds Sara Putt and will serve a three-year term, with Ade Rawcliffe and Andrew Miller as deputy chairs.

Film producer Caroline Levy has been appointed chair of the Television Committee, and ITV DEI and talent lead Nahrein Kemp chairs the Learning, Inclusion, and Talent (LIT) Committee.

"I have long been passionate about everything BAFTA does to promote the screen arts and champion talent across the screen industries, so it is a great privilege to take on the role of BAFTA Chair," said Rosen.

"I am delighted to be able to do this alongside our newly appointed committee chairs, Charu, Caroline, and Nahrein, and the rest of the BAFTA Board of Trustees."

"All are outstanding industry leaders and with the collective passion and insight we share I'm confident that this Board of Trustees will continue to build on the important and impactful work that has gone before."
