SATURDAY 16:00–17:00
14
SUNDAY 16:00–17:00
Cross Border Currents: The Growing Influence of Korea on South East Asian Cinema Korean firms have acquired cinema chains in Indonesia, Vietnam and they are building in Myanmar and China. This industrial outreach is now being followed by production ventures in China, Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam. Which effects does this have on local industries and what is the dynamic between major industries in Asia at the moment? MODERATOR Patrick Frater VARIETY Producers as Entrepreneurs How do independent producers actually earn a living and sustain their careers film by film? What business models are working for producers – are more people diversifying to work across film, TV, advertising and digital media? How do producers protect their fees from getting cut when budgets tighten, and how do they keep going when financing films is a slow process? Is more slate funding needed? When is a project too risky? Our panel of expert producers talk about the big picture as well as give practical tips on how to keep small businesses going. MODERATOR Wendy Mitchell SCREEN INTERNATIONAL, BRITISH COUNCIL

MONDAY 16:00–17:00
Cross-Atlantic Series Success: (Re)Making TV for Europe and the World The boom in high-end television series has ignited a creative explosion in Europe, and opened up new opportunities for producers and talent to sell their shows – as originals or adaptations – worldwide. But what does a show need to stand out? What are international broadcasters looking for and how can you make – or remake – a world-class series on a European budget. MODERATOR Scott Roxborough THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
Panel discussions are followed by networking cocktail (17:00–17:30).
15
MONDAY 10:30–12:00
Commissioning Strategies – the Trendsetters This fourth discussion, which is also part of the “Drama Series Days”, will take a look at recent developments on the television market from the perspective of broadcasters. Representatives from networks and studios at the cutting edge of international TV drama development showcase some of their upcoming projects and discuss how these are typical for the latest trends in storytelling, genre, production and distribution.

Cross Border Currents: The Growing Influence of Korea on South East Asian Cinema Korean firms have acquired cinema chains in Indonesia, Vietnam and they are building in Myanmar and China. This industrial outreach is now being followed by production ventures in China, Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam. Which effects does this have on local industries and what is the dynamic between major industries in Asia at the moment? MODERATOR Patrick Frater VARIETY Producers as Entrepreneurs How do independent producers actually earn a living and sustain their careers film by film? What business models are working for producers – are more people diversifying to work across film, TV, advertising and digital media? How do producers protect their fees from getting cut when budgets tighten, and how do they keep going when financing films is a slow process? Is more slate funding needed? When is a project too risky? Our panel of expert producers talk about the big picture as well as give practical tips on how to keep small businesses going. MODERATOR Wendy Mitchell SCREEN INTERNATIONAL, BRITISH COUNCIL

But what does a show need to stand out? What are international broadcasters looking for and how can you make – or remake – a world-class series on a European budget. MODERATOR Scott Roxborough THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
Panel discussions are followed by networking cocktail (17:00–17:30).
