Danielle Nagler, head of BBC HD and 3D, will leave the BBC in September to work for a city law firm.

Nagler has been responsible for the BBC’s HD development for the last four years and has also led a team looking at 3D content development..

Paying tribute to Nagler director of Archive Content Roly Keating said, “I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Danielle for the exceptional contribution she has made to the BBC, and to Vision in particular: her passion, intellect, energy and drive have made remarkable things happen here, and she’ll be much missed.”

Nagler’s role will not be replaced when she leaves. BBC Two controller Janice Haddow will take on responsibilities for the BBC’s HD output but no replacement has yet been announced for 3D.
