reated 20 years ago with the aim of adapting literary works for live theater, Spanish agency Scenic Rights has been undergoing a five-year shift towards the audiovisual, most specifically towards television.
Ignacio Díaz, Content Manager at Scenic Rights
“WE HAVE SOME COLLABORATION AGREEMENTS WITH LITERARY AGENCIES AND SOME OF THE MORE IMPORTANT PUBLISHERS IN LATIN AMERICA AND EUROPE, SO WHAT WE DO IS ACTIVATE CERTAIN WORKS TO GAIN TRACTION”. But, what exactly is Scenic Rights? It’s an agency specializing in the representation of literary IPs that has a catalogue of up to 25,000 fiction works and 1,000 that it’s actively promoting in the market.
“We have a total of 25,000 works and 1,000 that we’re actively promoting in the market. It’s a big load of content and brands on which we’re focusing on right now like María Dueñas, whose work ‘The Temperance’ is being adapted by Amazon; Spain’s Juan Gómez
In fact, Colombian Jorge Franco has made the news this year thanks to a deal closed by Scenic Rights with argentine production company Pol-ka Producciones to adapt his novel ‘El cielo a tiros’. According to Díaz, the deal with Pol-ka Producciones is the very first to be announced in Latin America, although there are several others in different stages close to be announced. “Confirmed and ready to be announced is our deal with Pol-ka, which makes us very happy. But we also have Curro Royo working with Dopamine for the Hernán
Cortés series, and we’re working to take projects to Colombia, Chile… We’re making a major sales effort in Latin America, with projects that we have already closed but we’re not ready to announce”, he reveals. “We also have two shows closed in Argentina, and we’re closing a project in Colombia, there is also a focus on Mexico as the strategic market it is, and we have two of three projects in development in the US Hispanic market”, he details. All in all, the executive explains Scenic Rights currently has up to 80 projects in different stages and several others in production. “During the first years the agency had the job to amass all this creative talent, and now after several

Puerta 7 Series
This year, the Argentine producer is celebrating its 25th anniversary with major projects in Argentina and the international market, including ‘Puerta 7’ (Netflix) and the adaptation of the novel ‘El cielo a tiros’ in Colombia. By Sebastián Amoroso

onsolidated in Argentina and a model producer in Latin America, Pol-ka Producciones, founded by Adrián Suar, is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year with important projects both locally and internationally.
In an interview with ttv, Roberto Lorenzi, its general manager, spoke about the company’s current initiatives in Argentina, as well as its international production projects. What did the 25th anniversary celebrations entail? We are very happy with the celebration, be-

cause we got to see almost everyone who at some point was part of what Pol-ka is today. It was a very nice moment, filled with memories for the actors, directors, producers and technicians. It’s been many years. In my case, almost 20, so there’s a lot of company milestones mixed with personal ones.
This new paradigm is the industry’s main challenge. This is the big
How would you describe the different stages you went through in these past 25 years? As we say, the best way to introduce yourself internationally is to be successful in your local market. For years now Pol-ka has consolidated itself in the local market and has been working in the international arena with different productions or co-productions. We were pioneers in that regard. A little out of necessity and also to find more screens for our products. A show used to be paid for by broadcast TV, but now we need three of four players collaborating to be able to finance a production and maintain the quality.
Aside from that, Pol-ka has had many international productions. We were able to develop, for example, ‘Son amores’ in Chile and Spain. But they’re always products that originally succeeded in Argentina, which we then took to the international market. And now we’re delving into the search for good stories that we’d like to tell, but not necessarily produce in Argentina first. A good example of this is the acquisition of the rights to the novel ‘El cielo a tiros’ to produce a fiction series in Colombia. This is a new stage for Pol-ka, which will also
“THIS YEAR WE WERE ABLE TO FULFILL THE DREAM OF REACHING NETFLIX WITH AN ORIGINAL SERIES, ‘PUERTA 7’, WHICH WE HOPE WILL BE GREATLY SUCCESSFUL.”
TTVPreview/17
And all this came from that first independent production, ‘Poliladron’... That’s correct. That series marked a before and after in Argentina’s fiction. It’s a show that set the path for us. It was an important project and I think slowly but surely through these 25 years, a lot of milestones were set in terms of local production that give us so much to look forward to in the future, especially in terms of new technologies and ways of accessing content, because we are no longer talking about TV.
change Pol-ka has been experiencing for years with the ups and downs in Argentina, but we’re on the right track.
This allowed Pol-ka to produce ‘Epitafios’ and ‘The Bronze Garden’ for HBO, as well as versions of ‘Desperate Housewives’ for different territories and products like ‘I’m Luna’ or ‘Violetta’ for Disney. And this year we were able to fulfill the dream of reaching Netflix with an original series, ‘Puerta 7’, which we hope will be greatly successful and as good as we see it.
Q&A
“ARGENTINA’S STATE AND INDUSTRY ARE COMBINING EFFORTS TO CREATE MORE REASONABLE PRODUCTION CONDITIONS THAN THE ONES WE CURRENTLY HAVE.” require alliances with third parties, because we believe that’s the way. We are looking for stories that we are interested in developing in different territories, mainly in Latin America and Spain. ‘El cielo a tiros’ is a novel that we think is fantastic. The idea is to co-produce it with a local partner in Colombia. We are very happy about this project, developing a sort of pre-production to turn the novel into a script. What can you tell us about Polka’s current local projects? Right now, our series ‘Argentina, tierra de amor y venganza’, which is airing on El trece’s prime time and which we are very happy about, because it was a major investment. From the scripts to the cast and the budget. It was a strong investment at a very complicated time for Argentina. The truth is Adrián Suar sometimes has a different eye; we led us to a project that definitely stands out from ordinary budgets in the local production market. Luckily, ratings are proving us right.
18/TTVPreview
What’s next in terms of fiction for the network’s prime time? We are working on pre-production for the next prime time project for El trece for 2020, which will possibly be titled ‘Separadas’. And in terms of co-production? Within the premium series co-production deal that we have with Turner Latin America, El trece and Cablevision Flow, we are working on different series projects. The deal includes ‘El Tigre Verón’, which premiered to great success. We are starting production of ‘Tu parte del trato’, an eight-episode miniseries
that will premiere before the end of the year. And in terms of the third project under the deal, we are evaluating different alternatives for next year. Can you share what this new project will be titled? I don’t want to name it yet because there are so many different alternatives and we haven’t decided yet. Within the co-production scheme, we have another 20 hours. We will see how the year ends. There are four or five projects on the table and we haven’t agreed on the next one yet. Which phase of production is ‘Puerta 7’ in? With ‘Puerta 7’ we just finished filming and we are now in post-production, which is very strong. We don’t know the premiere date yet because it’s a Netflix original. Adrián Suar, founder of Pol-ka Producciones, during the 25th anniversary celebrations.
And with HBO Latin America? We are working on the new series ‘Entre hombres’, which has only four episodes so far. It’s a sort of dark crime series, a major production. And I expect there will be more projects in the future. This year Pol-ka delved into a special series: ‘Chueco en línea’… ‘Chueco en línea’ is a major bet from Pol-ka’s digital division. We hope it will be the first of many projects that are in the pipeline and that we are developing with Flow and El trece. It’s a disruptive project that stands out from Pol-ka’s normal fiction productions. And we will also be preparing the second season of ‘El Host’ for FOX, which still has no premiere date. Which are Pol-ka’s current challenges? Argentina’s state and industry are combining efforts to create more reasonable production conditions than the ones we currently have. Aside from issues such as retention of export services, which I hope will be eliminated at some point, there are good news, such as the Knowledge Economy Law, which will kick-start in 2020. There’s also a project to promote “high impact series”, which has to be mended and that, along with some sort of minimum screen quota, will help a rundown industry. In addition, Pol-ka’s future is all about maintaining our deal with El trece, as well as developing new co-productions both locally and internationally. And that’s a major step we’re taking.

THE PHENOMENON GROWS IN SPAIN In January of 2018 and after seeing the results in Latin America, Nova, the Atresmedia network specialized in telenovelas, finally took the plunge and premiered its first Turkish drama: ‘Fatmagul’. The series became the highest-rated in the network’s history and the first of many Turkish dramas to air in Spain. Now, Nova has four Turkish dramas on air (‘Elif’, ‘Amor prohibido’, ‘Medcezir’ and ‘The Girl Named Feriha’) and Divinity (Mediaset), its main competitor, has another four (‘Erkenci Kus’, ‘Kuzey Guney’, ‘Icerde’ and ‘Siyah Beyaz Aşk’). This brings the total number of Turkish dramas in Spain to eight. When adding those that aired in the past, there’s another seven and at least another five have been acquired and will air in the future.
* The report was originally published on ttvmedianews.com on August 15th, 2019. ** The networks in Latin America that currently air Turkish dramas are: Canal 10, Teledoce, Monte Carlo TV, Telefe, TVN, Mega, Canal 13, Telefuturo, Unitel, Red Uno, Latina, Caracol Televisión, Canal 1, Teletica, Repretel, VTV, Canal 12, Televisiete, Imagen Televisión, Univisión. *** The countries analyzed were: Uruguay, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Paraguay, Bolivia, Peru, Colombia, Venezuela, Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico and the US.
‘20 MINUTES’, THE FIRST TURKISH ADAPTATION IN LATIN AMERICA Juan Ignacio Vicente, director of Content and International Business at Mega, spoke to ttv about the ambitious co-production project developed with Turkey’s Ay Yapim, set to be filmed in Colombia on the FOX Telecolombia studios. Five years since the premiere of ‘1001 Nights’, the first Turkish drama to disembark in Latin America on Mega in Chile, the network announced the region’s first Turkish co-production at the 2019 LA Screenings Independents: ‘20 Minutes’, created through an alliance between Mega in Chile, Ay Yapim in Turkey and FOX Telecolombia. Together with Viacom International Studios, Mega is becoming the first broadcaster in Latin America to produce a drama with a Turkish company. Juan Ignacio Vicente, director of Content and International Business at Mega, spoke to ttv about the ambitious project.
It’s important to highlight the fact that Mega was the first network in the region to air a Turkish drama... Yes, we were the first network in Latin America to bet on a Turkish title. It was back in march of 2014 with ‘1001 Nights’ and ‘Fatmagul’ came soon after. We’ve aired over 20 Turkish
writers. The adaptation will be done with Latin American writers.
We started a relationship with Ay Yapim where the idea of doing something together was always present, but barriers such as distance, language, costs and finding products that could work for both markets, were complex. There were several conversations about it, until we found the first project. It’s a piece based on one of their formats -which recently travelled to Latin America-, to be produced in Latin America with A-list Latin American actors, thought for the Latin American audience, mainly the US Hispanic, Mexico and Colombian territories as reference.
What’s the story’s main plot? It’s about a happy family. Father, mother and two kids. A family that’s able to buy their own home. The mother gets blamed for a murder which she says she didn’t commit. An attorney says he has the evidence and finally sends her to prison. Her husband, a Chemistry teacher, promises to find her justice one way or another, before it destroys the family. That’s the start of it all.
That’s where the idea to co-produce and join forces came from, to create a joint project which we are very excited about. Will it be a 60-episode super production? We are now developing the scripts and most likely it will be a 60-episode drama, or maybe we’ll do another shorter version. The structure is that of a super series. How has the bible been planned out? We are still working with the original name: ‘20 Minutes’. The adaptation is something we’re doing together. It will feature a group of original writers from ‘20 minutes’, plus Turkish screen-
It will be developed by FOX Telecolombia. Yes, the idea is to film it in their studios in Bogota. We need it to be a neutral location because we want the series to travel and be able to have a local feel in markets that are important to us. So it’s a project we are not designing solely for Mega’s screen. What will the production schedule be like? We developed a plan for the entire year and we hope to be able to start filming in early 2020 to have it ready by the second half of the year. Will it premiere on Mega? It won’t premiere on Mega. That’s not the goal behind this project. The idea is to find an international screen and based on that, we’ll see how we will give Mega a good window. The spirit behind this production and the reason why Ay Yapim is involved, is creating a multiplatform product that can travel across Latin America.
TTVPreview/23
How did this deal come about? This relationship with Ay Yapim began many years ago. We have an excellent business relationship and friendship. At Mega we’ve aired many of their telenovelas with great success. Since ‘Fatmagul’ we’ve created a relationship of mutual trust and respect.
telenovelas with great success.

GLOBO OPENS NEW STUDIOS
Called “Filming Module 4” (“MG4”), the new space is an expansion of the Globo Studios, which include three additional 1,500m2 studios that together make up the largest production facilities in Latin America. By Sebastián Amoroso / @sebamoroso / samoroso@todotv.tv
G
lobo marked the beginning of a new era in entertainment production with the opening of three new studios in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to expand the larget content production facilities in Latin America: Globo Studios.
In an area of over 26,000m², the new “Filming Module 4” (“MG4”) was created based on a new production concept, which will develop fictions from the main international producers with top-of-the-line equipment.
THE GLOBO STUDIOS IN NUMBERS
Between development and construction, the project took a total of five years to be completed.
A NEW PRODUCTION MODEL One of the main benefits of Globo Studios’ new facilities is the development of a new fiction production concept, expanding its artistic resources for the creation, direction and production of telenovelas. With fixed sets, the filming studios have integrated sets, offering greater realism to the stories. For example, the space allows for a scene to be filmed in an open space of 4,000 m2, or even film one scene in two sets at once. The studios also have 8m by 6m doors, a higher standard than the ones currently used in Brazil, which required the development of a new sound-proofing solution. In addition, smart architecture and sustainability have also been part of the new project. The installations have energy that comes from renewable sources and are lit with 100% LED lighting, while having efficient AC equipment and a solar power plant. The studios also have a rainwater and air conditioning reuse system, 100% treatment of generated effluents and selective waste collection. For the tree enrichment of the space, the planting of 14,000 new plants was promoted. Lastly, the facilities are “humanized” to provide a harmonious coexistence among employees. The dressing rooms of the casts have been renovated into large lounges of coexistence, reading and rehearsal.
TTVPreview/37
Total area: 1.73 million m² Total area built: 192,000 m² 13 filming studios totaling 12,500 m² Up to 15,000 people working every day 3 new 1,500 m² studios, totaling 4,500 m² of production area 26,000 m² built Outside area for integrated filming: 4,000 m² Acoustic doors: 8 m x 6 m Project length: 5 years 500 professionals working each month 14,000 new plants 2 70 m² ditches 4,500 m² solar power plant 1.05 MM KW generated in the first year 700 jobs generated during construction
With this new addition, Globo Studios is now spread across over 1.73 million m², with 13 filming studios covering 12,500 m², and expanding its production capabilities to develop telenovelas, series, miniseries, realities, original formats, and comedy and variety shows.
“In this era of transformation we’re living in, there is no industry that isn’t scared of what’s coming. Some are frightened and paralyzed. Others move forwards with their eyes closed. Globo’s tradition -for all the years and revolutions it’s lived through- has always been different: we take the new with courage and optimism, pushed by the desire to merge with the best of talents, a clear bet on quality and the knowledge to take the necessary steps required, but with the responsibility that the drive to evolve needs,” said Roberto Irineu Marinho, president of Globo’s Board of Directors, during the official inauguration ceremony for the new studios on August 8th.
Production With an investment of more than R$ 200 million (around US$ 49,650,000), the new facilities are an example of union between the best of the audiovisual industry and Globo’s production expertise. The redesign for the management and production processes, combined with new technological standards, are aimed at providing more flexibility to Globo’s content production. “I saw the dream and the excitement in the eyes of those who worked on this. And that’s precisely what we are: we are people who build dreams. Dreams that generate experiences and emotions in other people. And our business, without dreams and emotions, doesn’t move forward,” said Jorge Nóbrega, executive president of Globo.
Adding to the 3,000 hours of entertainment produced every year, these new facilities will allow Globo to expand its production capacity even more, offering new possibilities for development. “I can see everything we’ll be producing here; all the telenovelas, series, stories that we’ll launch to charm the world, and bring Brazil’s talent and culture to the world,” said Carlos Henrique Schroder, general director of Globo. The project is part of the restructure process that Globo started a few years ago by implementing new models for talent management, and content creation, production and distribution. The first production set to be filmed at the new studios starting in October is ‘Amor de madre’, Globo’s new prime time telenovela, written by Manuela Dias and directed by José Luiz Villamarin.

“I’d like to pay homage to the people who did this. Those people who are carrying these dreams on a daily basis. What we are able to see depends on the size of the mountain we are climbing. And Globo is not afraid of heights,” he added.
The expansion of Globo Studios is considered an accomplishment not only for Globo, but also for Brazilian culture as a whole.

THE FUTURE IS NOW IN THE NEW STUDIOS The technological investment for the Globo Studios deserves its own chapter. Considered one of the main transformations of the audiovisual industry for the coming years, the adoption of IP protocol connectivity will transform the facilities’ structure -unlike a broadcast network- into a data network through which the captured information will travel. The solution allows the transit of large volumes of information and more agility in the filming and editing processes. The studios are designed with wireless equipment, eliminating cables for cameras and mics, guaranteeing greater mobility across the set, as well as a cleaner studio. The three new studios were born enabled for 4K and 4K HDR formats, which offer four times the resolution of Full HD combined with the qualities of the High Dynamic Range, which through greater variation of color latitude, provides more vivid images and better contrast levels. In addition to the perception of quality and the most immersive experience, high resolution production facilitates post-production work and prepares Globo for the technologies that will come.

At 146 meters tall and with over two and a half million blocks of stone, the Great Pyramid of Khufu has fascinated the world since its construction 4,500 years ago. Some people believe ancient Egyptians had neither the knowledge nor the means to build such a structure, giving rise to some incredibly far-fetched theories. But recent discoveries at sites dating from the era of Khufu have shed new light on the technology available to builders at the time. Findings from archaeological missions in 2018 will provide new insight into how the Egyptians managed to build the Great Pyramid.
