Emily Stillman, Senior Vice President at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden, has been elected chair of BAFTA’s Film Committee, having held the position of Deputy Chair for two years. She will serve alongside Anthony Andrews, Co-Founder and Creative Director of We Are Parable, who has been elected Deputy Chair.

The eligibility, campaigning rules, and voting criteria for the Film, Games, Television, and Television Craft Awards are individually reviewed and set by the sector committees annually.
