One of the most active production and distribution companies in the international market, Dori Media Group began 2024 with several major productions in development, big premieres and development plans for the rest of the year.
In conversation with ttvnews in Content Americas, María Pérez Campi, Sales Director for US Hispanic & Latam, reviewed the group’s latest news and what they have in store for the coming months.
“First of all, we must highlight the premiere of Lalola on Vix, for which we carried out production in Mexico. Next Friday, February 2, is the official launch and we believe it will be a great success,” the executive began.
“In addition, we are post-producing the AMIA series that we produced in Uruguay. It is an Israeli-Argentine-Uruguayan production. We are working very meticulously on the production of the eight episodes and we hope to have the complete series by May to be able to show it. There is a lot of anxiety in the market to watch the episodes,” added the executive.
Along with AMIA, Dori Media has another highly anticipated series in production, the Israeli series Indal. “With Indal we are in the same situation. Maybe the episodes are a little earlier. Also eight episodes. It is one of our biggest bets with a great production,” she highlighted.
And for 2024 that has begun, the group already has its next big bets planned.
“In 2024 we will be producing five new dramas, with these same characteristics, short and of very high quality,” the executive revealed. “Two of them will be ready for Mipcom and the others by 2025.”
“And in Latin America we are also working on something new that we cannot yet reveal,” she added.
Regarding their time at Content Americas, which closes its doors this Thursday in Miami, the group presented two cooking shows, Chef Swap and Yum Factor, which meet the market demand for light entertainment.
“We brought two new cooking shows to Miami. We believe that there is a very high search for entertainment formats in LatAm, especially formats with simple rules. Audiences want to relax, get away from reality a little and be entertained,” said the executive.
“In general we had many meetings in the market. We observed that what is Free TV looks for entertainment formats and what are platforms are more scripted. Luckily we have deals in interesting negotiations that we will soon be able to reveal, with our productions for adaptation and other bookstore content. We are happy to be able to feed both types of buyers,” she concluded.
