Series Mania goes digital

The cancellation of Series Mania, the international festival dedicated to TV series, last week was an enormous disappointment to the 2,700 professionals who had planned to attend the industry-focused Series Mania Forum.

However, the event organisers have announced that there will be a replacement Digital Forum platform. It will cost 90 Euros and will be available from March 25 to April 7. Professionals will be able access it via a dedicated site hosted by Cinando.

Series Mania is regarded as an essential source for new projects and talent. The digital platform was introduced in response to professionals inquiring about the possibility of an online alternative.

In the face of adversity we had to adapt in order to offer industry professionals a prime-follow up of activity, essential to a future recovery that we all hope for.

Laurence Herszberg, Series Mania General Director

The forum will showcase projects in development and completed upcoming series that were to have been unveiled at the event. It will feature video pitches for the 16 projects selected for its flagship Co-pro pitching sessions as well as presentations and announcements. It will also offer the possibility for e-meetings enabling the creators and the industry to connect.
