Esmarelda practices her French

What has Esmarelda been up to during her trip to Equidia?

Esmeralda visited the production department and helped the guys to produce the TV shows by selecting the right camera at the right time. She was really helpful!

She also worked on the community website of Equidia – EquidiaClub. She helped the manager to negotiate the promotions for the fans and publish the content on the website and emailing.
She finally came on stage to introduce the equestrian competition.

Who did she meet?

She met Pascal Boutreau who is the responsible of editorial content at Equidia.fr and presenter on Equidia Life. She met Julien Michaud – Manager of Digital marketing and EquidiaClub, Maud Vogel – Manager of Equidia Radio, along with the communications team and all the TV production team.
