Netflix has signaled its strong commitment to Latin American television content by teaming up with the region’s most important confab, Ventana Sur, on its TV strand, SoloSeries. For the first time,…
For the first time, Ventana Sur and Netflix have joined forces to provide more impetus to women creators with a cash incentive of $5,000 . This will be awarded to one project selected out of five SoloSeries participating projects in development by Argentine women creators. In addition, Carolina Leconte, Netflix director of original series for Latin America, will be mentoring on the participating projects.
SoloSeries aims to gather the most notable series and microseries in Latin America and serves as a networking hub for showrunners, screenwriters and producers. This year, in collaboration with the Spanish production company EsSpotlight, a call was made to present projects in development for fiction and documentary series.
Digital platform Flixxo will select five to eight microseries projects in development that are participating in MicroSeries pitching sessions, and will award a bitcoin prize valued at $1,000.
