Cannes - French TV Festival The Cannes Film Festival, in most cases, kicked off a new life this week, hosting a new standalone version without parallel MIPTV or MIPCOM, offering a large buyer base that is really just the yard that was screened from the Cannes Film Festival.

Cannes artistic director Albin Lewi said in Cannes that the event had nothing to do with live buyers, but was “buzzing”, “even if the buyers weren’t on site, it was important. In addition, “many of our industry players also wore different hats, and all series were backed by international distributors,” he added.

In terms of buyer replacement, Cannes has launched or launched a club of producers, writers and composers, each composed of dozens of professionals. But is the formula valid? From April 24 to 29, there are 10 takeaways at the new Cannes Film Festival:

"duster" is dazzling and azzy

Of course, the Cannes Film Festival in the United States' large series is quite shocking with local audiences. Levi said playing Max's "Duster" created by JJ Abrams and Latoya Morgan plays the legendary Palace Festival at the Cannes Film Festival, "the best screening at the Cannes Film Festival." "The audience was ecstatic. It was a dream to own the JJ Abrams series with Latoya Morgan and Josh Holloway. It was an American that we loved since the 70s. It was so great. It did a great job. It wasn't just a big success. French newspaper Le Parisien recreated and performed for the 1970s success "and the feeling of being influenced by the popularity, allowing it to mix fun and action, while also talking about more sensitive topics like racism and sadness, which gave "Duster" a "Dustr" in five stars. type He also had intense interviews with Holloway and Latoya Morgan.

"The Walking Dead: The Dead City", Season 2: Jeffrey Dean Morgan Charms

It is hard to exaggerate the flexibility feeding fanaticism that international audiences feel and the leader of the "Walking Dead" is a huge European star. Fan favorite Morgan, Negan, in the franchise, is co-leader of Dead City, where he developed a crazy relationship with Lauren Cohan's Maggie, attended the Cannes Film Festival with his family and left his handprints at the Cannes Film Festival. "Dead City" is "all about Jeffrey Dean Morgan," Liu Yi said. Some fanatics want more blood in the early episodes. As the premiere on May 5 at OCS in France, Season 2 was called "a strong return season to raise shares, so is our engagement."

'Bridgeton' Nicola Coughlan proves her huge fan base

Despite the busy industry, outstanding figures participated in "House of Cards" show host Beau Willimon and "Industry" producer Jane Tranter - no one gathered inside the palace like Nicola Coughlan. The lines of the conversation of the "Bridgerton" star began early, with the enthusiastic teenagers going all the way to the back filled with plenty of auditorium, and eager fans stood in an hour of speech and glimpsed the Irish actor. In the town, she received a commitment award from French media company Konbini, Coughlan spoke in detail about her activism, Netflix hit rate of the era and "bad sentiment", which earned her the first BAFTA nomination.

Buzz title

In the French main series, Canal+ and Studiocanal draw optimistic comments in the "Corsic Line", a gritty mafia thriller that forms a spectacular Corsican cake that describes the details starring creator Pierre Leccia and "furies" and starring "furies'lina'lina el lina el Arabi. "The Dead End" and "Reykjavik Fusion, led by "Calling Ceilings" by Eulafar Dari Ólafsson, are the two main competitions. Melanie of the French Metropolitan Melanie Bonvard rated her highest ratings as “Hello Stranger”. Bonvard rated the short performance “N00B” “N00B” supported by New Zealand WBD (favorite for several other French critics). Other favorites were “Marditos,” a dynamic crime thriller “Max who can become a French phenomenon”, predicting Belgium’s competition “Sacred Shit”, which was primarily a knockout match by Bilgium’s Mona Mina Leon (1985) as a fan of a contender.

Norway's huge victory at the Cannes Film Festival

However, when the Cannes Awards were announced on April 29 at the Palais des Desivals, the Norwegian Awards were awesome. Thomas Seeberg Torjussen's "A Better Man" won the best series and best performance from star Anders Baasmo, while Henriette Steenstrup's "Nepobaby" won the script and won a special interpretation award for his ensemble performance. Magnus Skatvold, in his third award in Norway, "Agent - My Father's Life and Lies", was regarded as the best documentary. Norway once ranked as a high-quality television powerhouse behind Denmark and Sweden. no longer. Furthermore, all three winning titles share a common quality: the ability to solve urgent problems but to entertain.

Cannes business

But is there anything that can benefit companies in Cannes? It is worth noting that in the festival’s competition, how many major major competition champions are either picked for international releases—“Dead End,” “A Better Man”—or still launching pre-sales when they hit the Cannes Film Festival: “Reykjavik Fusion” for sale by Mediapro Studio Distribution. "The screening of 'L/Over' was very smooth," said Helene Aurø, director of marketing and sales at Reinvent. At press time, Aurø had a heated discussion to close some of the Finnish performances.

Cannes still be needed

Although it is a boutique event - type The distributor said it was shocked by its ability on the majestic hotel terrace and immediately grabbed one of the best tables, which was unthinkable at the Cannes Film Festival, which remains a gratifying continuation on the TV calendar. "It's nice that there are still Cannes and organizers are doing a great job of sorting out people's work," Olaro said. "We need a spring market." MIPTV is a market that can attract many buyers. ”

Industry Trends: Bands Get Together Again

The Cannes Film Festival also captured the international television business with further ocean changes. Its title highlights an increasingly attractive financing model, at least for selective foreign language performances, based on partnerships and pre-sales between local broadcasters in Europe, rather than waiting for a US deal with streaming, which is a challenge for performances that are not in English. A good example: "Reykjavik Fusion" produced by Iceland's ACT4, the wild sheep content of former Netflix senior executive Erik Barmack and the pan-European Pubcaster Arte. In its four years of operation, Wild Sheep has sold more than 25 projects to 12 global partners. However, the packaging of "Reykjavik Fusion" is more traditional, however, Iceland's símmin supports and pre-sale to AMC Iberia and Finland's Yle. "The Scandinavian show used to be with four or five broadcasters. The show was like a band coming together," Barmack said.

America looks at Europe

The French TV Festival is not like American players looking for Europe. “As a teenager, having the world with Amazon’s Netflix really eliminates any opportunity to have an acquisition conversation. type In Cannes. "I know the Spanish market. I don't know the French market," added Sharon Hughff of Scott Free. "There is a special show where we have something that we meet with French producers today and talk about the show. Honestly, it's an education."

The biggest way to move forward as an industry

However, the biggest industry change is likely to be among the wider distribution options. "The key market trend is that producers and networks are eager to work towards more flexible distribution models and windows, especially in Europe," Barmack said last month. "Connectivity is always great, especially in times like this when you feel we need to be united, especially in Europe - not only to find collaboration, but to share experiences, love for our business and be inspired," Amelie von Kienlin at the Amusement Park movie ("Munichgames"), at the producers club in Canneseries, said at the Cannes Film Festival. “International joint production is not easy to put together because most broadcasters and streamers are looking for local content, but we’re seeing more openness in streaming and broadcasters working together within the home territory, which offers opportunities.”
