Producer

After Cannes filmfestival, we had meetings with two bigger producers  Jannike met there, regarding two different film and tv projects. One of the project meetings led us to another meeting soon, then with TV.  If the meeting with the TV company goes our way we´ll get some more development money for scriptwriting in the autumn.

The other contact in Cannes led to a meeting with a producer who actually are interested in producing our brand NEW project,  a sequel of an earlier film. A photographer and filmmaker is already involved and have said yes to be a part of the film. TO BE CONTINUED…
