Published

Los Angeles, CA, September 15, 2025 -- Demange brings a body of work that spans critically acclaimed television, feature films, and global campaigns, further strengthening Park’s reputation for creative excellence.

Based in London, the French-Algerian filmmaker is known for his visceral storytelling and dynamic visual style. Equally adept at navigating grounded realism and genre-based narratives, Demange’s films are united by his authored cinematic aesthetic.

Demange directed the first four episodes of the BAFTA-nominated crime drama Top Boy, and the pilot of HBO’s Lovecraft Country, cementing his reputation for high-impact, character-driven narratives. He directed feature films, White Boy Rick, starring Matthew McConaughey, and ‘71, which is set during The Troubles and earned him a British Independent Film Award for Best Director. 

Applying the same cinematic sensibility, visual flair, and emotional intensity to his commercial work, Demange has directed award-winning campaigns for brands like Nike, FIFA, Instagram, EA Sports, Johnnie Walker, and Meta.

Executive Producer and Founding Partner of Park Pictures, Jackie Kelman Bisbee, adds, “Yann is a masterful storyteller, whether working in film and television or helming commercial projects. I’ve been a fan of his for a while, and I’m beyond excited to have him on our roster at Park Pictures.”

Park Pictures was founded in 1998 by Executive Producer Jacqueline Kelman Bisbee and renowned filmmaker/ cinematographer Lance Acord. Bicoastal/London-based Park Pictures has an auspicious track record of discovering and mentoring new filmmaking talent and infusing all projects with big screen production values.  Park has a reputation for the highest level of production execution and has been producing award-winning work for clients such as Apple, Nike, Google, Adidas, GE, Verizon, Nissan, and Volkswagen for over 20 years.  Over the years, Park has produced features and documentaries, with over ten chosen as Official Selection at Sundance.
