Rodolphe Guignard has joined the CAPA team as Deputy Director of the Editorial Department and Producer. He will report directly to Patrice Lorton, Director of Editorial at CAPA.

His mission will be to develop, sell, and oversee documentary projects, with a particular focus on strengthening CAPA’s offerings in science, history, and discovery topics. He will also work across all broadcasters.

With over twenty years of experience in the media industry, Rodolphe Guignard previously served as Director of Documentary Productions and Factual Programs at RMC Découverte, France’s leading documentary channel, and more recently as Director of “Factual Factory,” a documentary label within the SATISFACTION group. These roles have provided him with strong expertise in creating programs for linear channels and platforms, both in France and internationally.

Patrice Lorton:
“We are delighted to welcome Rodolphe Guignard to CAPA. His skills and background align perfectly with CAPA’s desire to expand into factual documentaries through international co-productions. Rodolphe will also be able to leverage CAPA’s expertise to develop other types of projects.”

Rodolphe Guignard:
“In a rapidly changing market, documentaries are experiencing exponential success. CAPA’s ambition to strengthen its focus on ‘Factual’ content immediately appealed to me. Joining France’s leading documentary producer to support this creative momentum is an incredibly exciting challenge.”
