Sibel Levendoğlu, Head of Sales America & Iberia KANAL D INTERNATIONAL
It had its premiere at the end of January on Kanal D on Thusday nights in prime time and has been number one every week since it began airing in Turkey. ‘It is a very special title because the author is also an actor, poet and he is the producer so, it has a very well-cared for store and the feelings are on the surface. We are going with about 50 x 45 minutes in the first season.’
Sibel says that ‘The catalog includes ‘Three Sisters’ which will end the thirds season at the end of May with very encouraging numbers and also includes classics that are being purchased such as (Fatmagül’ün Sucu Ne?) What is Fatmagul’s fault? and other well-known titles that are being sold for second and third screens.’
Let’s talk about the redifinition of the windows, the fierce competition of the channels. How dou you define the transmission and distribution business today?
Yes, it is true there is a lot of competition and it has to do with technology and new models of making productions and distributing. Right now the competition we have in Turkey between the channels has to do with the number of episodes and winning over audiences. The distribution changes in each country, because in some countries on open television they have a decrease in audiences in their slots, but at the same time other windows are opened to display the content. It is a business in transformation and that makes us very happy.
