Designed as a personalized workshop, Series Makers offers participants the opportunity to work on developing an original series, guided by award-winning international mentors, with the goal of creating a complete, market-ready pitch deck.
The program is aimed at teams with experience in feature films and will be developed in two main phases: an initial round of individual online mentoring sessions between November 2025 and January 2026, and a series of exclusive masterclasses with leading professionals in the international television series industry.
Key workshop content includes tools for series writing, understanding the global television series ecosystem, and strategic advice for positioning projects in the market.
At the end of the program, a jury will select a winning team, which will receive accreditation and three nights’ accommodation to participate in Series Mania Forum 2026, where their project will be presented during one of the market’s official events.
