The Motion Picture Association, a trade organization representing Hollywood studios, has named Pamela Courant as Vice President of Worldwide Communications.
In her new role, Corante will coordinate with the Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment, a group that seeks to protect the legal ecosystem for creative content, as well as the Trusted Partner Network, the MPA’s industry-wide film and television content security initiative.
Corante will dual report to Jan van Voorn, MPA’s Executive Vice President and Head of Global Content Protection and President of ACE, along with John Mercurio, MPA’s Senior Vice President of Communications. It will be based in Los Angeles and will start on January 3, 2023.
“As we enter a new year, I am confident Pamela will be an excellent addition to the MPA, working closely with the ACE and TPN teams on some of the most important priorities of the association and our member companies,” Van Vooren said. “Her skills and experience align perfectly with our mission to combat the existential threat that piracy poses to the world’s creative economy.”
Mercurio added, “I am delighted to welcome Pamela to MPA, where she will bring tremendous value to our communications efforts. In her previous roles, by all accounts, Pamela has established a successful record of thinking creatively and strategically to achieve a wide range of objectives, and I am confident she will extend that success as a leadership member of the MPA Communications team.”
Corante joins the MPA from Virgin Hyperloop, a Los Angeles-based transportation technology company. Previously, she worked in communications for AT&T Latin America’s digital entertainment division.
“It is an honor to join the world-class MPA team to build awareness of ACE’s global anti-piracy mission and content security assessment services at TPN,” Corante said. “The MPA is a global force with a simple mission: to support creators and ensure they continue to tell stories that audiences around the world love. I fully support this mission and look forward to using my skills and experience to help us achieve it.”
