Globo Turns 40 The international distribution division of Brazilian network Rede Globo -one of the largest drama factories in the world- is celebrating its 40th anniversary from the time it sold its telenovela ‘O BemAmado’ to Uruguay’s Teledoce channel in 1973. The company continues expanding its international business to this day, and ttv is taking a look back at this past four decades. By Sebastián Amoroso Twitter: @sebamoroso samoroso@todotv.tv
T
his is a very special year for Globo and its international distribution division. This year, that project that began with the distribution of a telenovela called ‘O Bem-Amado’ to Teledoce in Uruguay back in 1973, was the first step in a content distribution venture that hasn’t stopped growing since, reaching all corners of the globe, harvesting several international awards and following down the same path as great media groups. It all started a few months ago in January, during the opening day at the 2013 Natpe in Miami, where Globo presented its catalog of programming for the new year to 150 international guests at the event, while also celebrating its 40th year of presence in the global market. “It’s a true joy for us to be able to celebrate 40 years of successful business in the international markets with all our clients who are interested in our work and invest on our productions,” Raphael Corrêa Netto, executive director of International Business at Globo, said to ttv that day in late January. “We are leaders in Brazil and a reference in drama production across the globe. The trust from our viewers and partners was achieved through hard work, professionalism, investments in high quality and creativity.” HISTORY OF SUCCESS. All things must start somewhere. For Globo, it all began with the sale of one of its productions, ‘O Bem-Amado’ to the Teledoce network in Uruguay in 1973. And from that moment on, both companies have worked together to this day. After that, networks and audiences in regional countries began to enjoy the productions Globo offered the international market, known for its profound stories, big budgets and high quality factual content. “During those 40 years as a company we’ve managed to accomplish a great challenge, which is taking the Brazilian product, creativity and innovation across all borders,” Netto said at Natpe
2013. “I mean, we travel across borders in the sense that we take Globo’s product and Brazilian culture to all continents. I think this is a role we must be proud of and something will surely continue to do,” he added.
versión of the hit telenovela ‘Gabriela, Cravo e Canela’, based on Jorge Amado’s book and starring Sônia Braga, will be distributed this year by Globo and Warner Bros. International Television Distribution.
History then continued to prove Globo’s products were destined to become established worldwide. Thus in 1981 Globo won its first International Emmy with the kids’ musical ‘Vinicius para Criança - El Arca de Noé’, based on the work of Vinicius de Moraes and directed by Augusto César Vannucci.
“Our telenovelas have been part of our viewers’ lives for the past 40 years. Titles like ‘Sinhá Moça’, ‘Roque Santeiro’, ‘O Rei do Gado’ and ‘The Clone’; are sold to this day to networks on different platforms like satellite, cable and IPTV,” Ricardo Scalamandré, director of Globo’s International Business Division, said to ttv.
By the end of the nineties, more precisely in 1999, Globo launched its international network Globo TV Internacional, becoming the first Brazilian network to be broadcast via satellite to Brazilian and Portuguese-speaking audiences overseas, with digital quality, 24 hours a day.
“Our telenovelas have been part of our viewers’ lives for the past 40 years.”
Guilherme Bokel, Executive Director of International Entertainment; Ricardo Scalamandré Head of International Business and Raphael Correa Netto, Executive Director of International Business at Natpe 2013.
Nowadays, the network has over 620,000 subscribers worldwide, in 116 countries across the five continents. Its programming includes live newscasts, sports, telenovelas, miniseries, kids’ programs and variety shows. The international awards kept on coming, and in 2009 the company won its second International Emmy Award in the Best Telenovela category with ‘India – A Love Story,’ by Gloria Pérez. TIME FOR CO-PRODUCTION. Shortly after, Globo co-produced its first telenovela with its partner network Telemundo in the US. The title was ‘The Clone’ -an adaptation of ‘The Clone’ by Gloria Pérez, originally broadcast in 2001 on Globo’s primetime in Brazil, and sold in over 90 countries-, which aired from February to October in the US and Mexico, reaching high ratings. In 2011 came another telenovela, ‘Blood Ties’, co-produced between Globo and SIC, which also won another International Emmy in the Best Telenovela category. That same year, Globo won another Emmy in the Best Newscast category for ‘Jornal Nacional’s coverage of the invasion of the Complexo do Alemão neighborhood. One year later in 2012, Globo won yet another Emmy for ‘The Illusionist’, named Best Telenovela, and another statue for ‘The Invisible Woman’, crowned Best Comedy at the ceremony. The company then also launched its sixth feed for Zon’s basic package in Portugal. Globo is currently developing new co-productions, including ‘Marido en Alquiler’ with Telemundo, an adaptation of the original Brazilian version sold as ‘Looks & Essence’ -in production since February with no pending release date-, in addition to other projects with Azteca (Mexico) and Caracol Televisión (Colombia). On top of this, ‘Gabriela’, a new
“We believe this success and recognition are mostly due to the quality of the content we offer. They’re original productions, always good love stories with humor and drama. We are very proud to be able to take these emotions to homes across the globe. I think this comes from the passionate way we devote ourselves to television,” he concluded. Roque Santeiro 1985

SVP Sales and Acquisitions, Latin America, Telemundo Internacional “Telemundo Internacional’s offer features telenovelas that are known for their great performance, as well as other series and formats that will surely spark great interest.” By Sebastián Amoroso Twitter: @sebamoroso samoroso@todotv.tv
elemundo Internacional is known for developing high-quality telenovelas and establishing the genre worldwide, always prioritizing good scripts and production, finding the right talent and using cutting-edge technology, to create products with a life of their own. In the following interview with ttv, Esperanza Garay, SVP Sales and Acquisitions, Latin America at Telemundo Internacional gives an overview of the network’s main titles to present at the Palais des Festivals. How would you describe Telemundo Internacional’s offer for MIPTV 2013? Telemundo’s offer is extremely appealing for our clients because it features telenovelas that are known for their great performance, as well as other series and formats that will surely spark their interest. Which telenovelas will Telemundo Internacional be presenting in Cannes? We are taking ‘Forbidden Love’ and ‘The Return’, which is doing great in the US. ‘The Return’s performance is groundbreaking, especially considering it’s broadcast at 9:00 PM. In this timeslot, it’s even been able to surpass ratings registered by ‘The Queen of the South’, and this time frame is highly competitive. Meanwhile, ‘Forbidden Love’ has shown increasing ratings and has a level of production that has made audiences embrace it even more. And we’ll also show a preview of a new major production ‘The Lord of the Skies’, produced by Telemundo in association with Caracol Televisión, which we expect will be overwhelmingly successful.
How have Telemundo Internacional’s titles performed in Latin America? One of Telemundo Internacional’s titles that truly deserves a special mention for its performance in Latin America is ‘Tales of the Virgin of Guadalupe’, a series with stories related to the Virgin of Guadalupe. This series is broadcast daily on Telemundo with excellent ratings for the US network. It’s been one of Telemundo’s top products and now we’re taking it to other countries in the region. We’ve tried it out in Ecuador’s primetime on Ecuavisa, and it had a great run. It was also broadcast at daytime and it was also a success. ‘Tales of the Virgin of Guadalupe’ has been distributed in several countries throughout the region and we are fully confident it will continue to be a success.

“’The Return’s performance is groundbreaking, especially considering it’s broadcast at 9:00 PM.” “We’ll also show a preview of a new major production ‘The Lord of the Skies’, produced by Telemundo in association with Caracol Televisión, which we expect will be overwhelmingly successful.”
The Return Telenovela
What details can you share about ‘The Return’s performance in the US? ‘The Return’, which premiered in January in the US and is just taking its first steps in Latin America, where it’s been sold to over 90% of the region, continues to be as successful there as it was in the US, where it even surpassed ‘The Queen of the South’. In this sense, ‘The Return’ has scored ratings of over 1.5 million viewers among adults 18-49, marking the seventh time it registered ratings of over a million viewers.
In addition to telenovelas, how have Telemundo Internacional’s adaptations in Europe worked out in 2012? Of the formats we sold in 2012, it’s worth highlighting the success of ‘Quinceañeras’, a teen game show that appeals to both moms and daughters, both of which are part of the competition and thus helps engage more viewers. This format has done great in Kazakhstan, where more than one season has been developed.
T/TTV MAGAZINE
Telemundo Internacional also represents titles from Chile’s TVN worldwide. What would you highlight from these Chilean productions? At Miptv we’ll also present ‘Separados’, which is part of TVN Chile’s catalog, as well as series ‘Tales of the Virgin of Guadalupe’, which was developed successfully in the US and Ecuador. We also have ‘Naím Effect’, a weekly news series hosted by Moises Naím from Washington DC, which analyzed current affairs and world news, produced by NTN 24. Are you presenting any entertainment series in Cannes? We’ll present an entertainment format called ‘Letris’, a game show that’s very innovative with elements of interactivity, and is already very popular on tablets and smartphones. This product premiered on April 1 on TVE in Spain, and by the time we arrive at MIPTV, clients will be able to see the first few episodes aired in Spain. ‘Letris’ is part of Reset TV’s catalog, the company responsible for ‘Operación Triunfo’. We’ll also present other productions from their catalog like ‘Minuto de Gloria’, an interesting game show in which two contestants aspire to become music stars. ttv
