Co-productions and pre-buys are back in fashion ! Shouldn’t be anything new, at least not to European producers. We’re basically back to how many projects used to be engineered. At least it’s the way I’ve worked on most of -if not all of- the projects I’ve developed and set up, among which Midnight Sun/ Jour Polaire (SVT /CANAL+ Group /STUDIOCANAL), Agent Hamilton (TV4 /ZDF /Beta Film GmbH ), or Whiskey On the Rocks (SVT /Disney Streaming ). Now that most streamers have opened up for copros, pre-buys and territorial deals, producers have now more possibilities and there’s a larger amplitude of various partnerships available, depending on the specific IPs and projects. Broadcasters and streamers are learning to work together through windowing and other innovative approaches. And US studios are seeking collaboration with european producers. So it’s still a tough business, neither simpler or harder than it used to be, but it holds greater exploitation opportunities for IP and projects that cut through the noise! #coproduction #tvseries #scripted #svod #broadcaster #producer
