Donald Zuckerman, one of the primary architects of the drive to bring the Sundance Film Festival to Boulder starting in 2027 , is no longer the film commissioner of Colorado, according to the state.

Zuckerman’s Colorado Office of Film, Television and Media will now be led by Arielle Brachfeld, the former deputy film commissioner, who will work as interim commissioner and director of the office. The film office falls under the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade (OEDIT), which is run by executive director Eve Lieberman, an appointee of Gov. Jared Polis.

An OEDIT spokesperson declined to say why Zuckerman had left, or who was part of the decision, citing its policy of not commenting on personnel matters. Zuckerman declined to comment Monday morning.
