Starline Entertainment Boosts Executive Team

LONDON: The U.K.-based Starline Entertainment is expanding its team, adding new sales and marketing executives.

Anna Brunelli joins the company in the newly created role of sales and acquisitions executive, where she will handle TV and digital sales for Southern Europe and Latin America. Brunelli previously worked in Rome as production and distribution assistant for Gabriele Albanesi Productions and as acquisitions and sales assistant at A-Pictures.

Also coming aboard is Tanya Lopes as marketing executive. At Starline, Lopes will be responsible for the company’s arrangements for film and TV markets and all marketing materials. The executive began her career as an apprentice at High Point Films, moving on to sales and marketing support before working in marketing outside the film and TV industry.

“With her extensive experience and contacts across Southern Europe and Latin America, Anna has really hit the ground running, while Tanya’s marketing savvy and knowledge of social media is invaluable,” said Julie Delaney, partner and director of worldwide distribution at the company.

Piers Nightingale, Starline’s partner and director of acquisitions, added: “Both Anna and Tanya bring individual skills to Starline and will be dynamic assets to the team.”
