Masterclass: Lars Blomgren (EN)

Think global….act local. This maxim has been applied to many sectors. Is “glocality” realistic as far as series’ creation is concerned? Is it feasible to base series on subjects which are very specific to a particular country, also with the ambition of international reach? During this masterclass, Lars Blomgren will touch on emblematic series, to illustrate the international development strategy of the Shine Group and identify success factors for local creations with international ambition. Lars Blombren is co-founder and managing director of Filmlance International AB, a production company that is part of the Endemol Shine Group, as is Scripted Exchange of which he is chairman. He has produced around 65 works, including Bron/Broen and its American-Mexican remakes, The Bridge 1 and 2. He is also a member of the European Film Academy.
