Seri­al Eyes Wel­comes ZDF as New Industry Part­ner for Its 12th Season

With its 12th sea­son kick­ing-off, Seri­al Eyes has added a major new part­ner to its fam­ily: the ZDF, one of the main Ger­man pub­lic-ser­vice tele­vi­sion broad­caster, will sup­port the pro­gram for two years, join­ing a roster of long-estab­lished industry partners.

“ZDF has estab­lished itself as a key play­er in the European series mar­ket through its inter­na­tion­al co-pro­duc­tions. Our con­tinu­ous expan­sion of our port­fo­lio in recent years, such as our involve­ment in the European Alli­ance or New8, has led to excit­ing and suc­cess­ful new pro­jects. ZDF has a strong interest in fos­ter­ing a vibrant cre­at­ive scene and build­ing net­works with poten­tial part­ners in this area as well. The Seri­al Eyes pro­gram has impressed us with its approach and excep­tion­al qual­ity over the years. We look for­ward to act­ively con­trib­ut­ing as a part­ner in the future.” – Jas­min Maeda, Head of ZDF’s Inter­na­tion­al Fic­tion Division

In addi­tion to ZDF, Seri­al Eyes is also sup­por­ted by Con­stantin Tele­vi­sion, The Walt Dis­ney Com­pany Ger­many, Aud­ible, Medi­awan, Atlantique Pro­duc­tions, Dynam­ic Tele­vi­sion, Real Film, and Big Light Pro­duc­tions. Togeth­er, they aim to nur­ture the next gen­er­a­tion of European series writers and trans­form the series land­scape and exist­ing industry struc­tures through writers trained in col­lab­or­at­ive work and the writers’ room envir­on­ment. These industry part­ners provide vital per­son­al con­nec­tions to the busi­ness and assist par­ti­cipants in devel­op­ing their projects.
