XDC Appoints Alexandre Weiser As Content Services Sales Director
From April 2010, Alexandre Weiser joins XDC, the n°1 digital cinema company in Europe, to develop the Content Services activity
Alexandre Weiser is Belgian and has a culturally diverse
technical and operational background. He graduated as a sound engineer from
INSAS (Institut National Supérieur des Arts du Spectacle), Belgian national
film school in 1998 and recently completed an MBA program at CBS (Copenhagen

Alexandre spent the early part of his career
working as a sound engineer on live events and in music recording studios. In
the late nineties he moved to Paris and joined Dubbing-Brothers where he acquired
extensive experience in the language localization industry. In 2004, Alexandre

European Operations after SDI Media acquired Sun Studio with presences in 8
European countries.
Alexandre Weiser, Content Services Sales Director of XDC, said: “I’m pleased to take on my new role at XDC,
and join the exciting digital cinema industry. I will focus on growing the XDC
Content Lab services business targeting the major Hollywood studios and the
European movie producers, sales agents and distributors. To do so, I will
benefit from XDC’s extensive experience, highly-skilled staff, top-notch
equipment and proprietary tools designed to streamline the process.”
Fabrice
Testa, Vice President
Sales & Business Development of XDC, concluded: “It’s a pleasure to get in my team a
well-rounded person like Alexandre Weiser.
His background in the cinema industry and the already well-established contacts
that he has within the business are valuable assets to develop the XDC Digital
Content Lab activities. XDC Lab is working for a lot of distributors including
some major ones, and we are appreciated for the high quality work as well as
the numerous extras that only a global company like XDC can offer. I’m sure
that with Alexandre on board, we will now be able to convince many others to
cooperate with us.”
