The series focuses on the story of world-renowned ham carver <\/span><b>Emilio Garc\u00eda Ortigosa<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and is produced by <\/span><b>PAN Audiovisual <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(Argentina) in partnership with <\/span><b>Blurr Rojo<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Canary Islands).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><b><i>What are the fundamental strategic pillars driving this network?<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">IBEROFIC views training as a strategic pillar. This year, we are focusing on two development working groups. The first is &#8220;Cultural Prominence: strategies to raise awareness of the rights of Indigenous and Afro-descendant peoples in Ibero-American audiovisual media,&#8221; led by REDMEXCOM; the goal is to advance concrete actions and ensure greater representation for these communities&#8217; stories in audiovisual media. The second focuses on &#8220;Sustainable Filming,&#8221; a collaborative space for member commissions dedicated to addressing practices and protocols related to sustainability in audiovisual production across four areas: training (internal capacity building, sharing tools and success stories); analysis by production area (identifying impacts and best practices during filming); the IBEROFIC protocol (developing a common guide that is flexible and adaptable to different territories); and sector outreach (coordinating with production companies and disseminating sustainable practices).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><b><i>As the creator of this network, what have been the main challenges and obstacles in establishing IBEROFIC?<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The challenge has been immense. Coordinating such a diverse network amidst vastly different economic, regulatory, and political realities\u2014and reaching consensus among more than 150 organizations\u2014requires time, trust, and a shared long-term vision. Yet, in less than two years, we have managed to move from a declaration of intent to a regional operational structure. Our collaborative working model has been key to building that shared vision, and the creation of the Board of Directors solidifies this process, bringing greater institutional stability and representational capacity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><b><i>Finally, Carolina, what are the challenges and next steps given the current global geopolitical context?<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The world is experiencing significant geopolitical tensions that impact the international market through budgetary constraints. Amidst such a complex scenario, the major challenge for IBEROFIC is to sustain regional cooperation and highlight the region&#8217;s strength as a unified bloc. We must be more efficient, innovative, and strategic in our use of resources, prioritizing high-impact projects. At IBEROFIC, we believe that the regional level is the only way to compete sustainably in today&#8217;s global context.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The IBEROFIC Board is composed of the following active members: <\/span><b>Juan Manuel Guimer\u00e1ns<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Spain), <\/span><b>Marysela Zamora<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Costa Rica), <\/span><b>Diana \u00c1lvarez Segoviano<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Mexico), <\/span><b>Javier Espinoza Medina<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Baja California), <\/span><b>Ana Oliveira Marques<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Portugal), and <\/span><b>Carolina Cordero<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (Buenos Aires).<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; font-size: 11px;\">Advertising<a href=\"https:\/\/mitelefe.com\/telefe-studios\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-70112 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/TVMAS_BANNER-345X100-01.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"345\" height=\"100\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; font-size: 11px;\">Advertising<a href=\"https:\/\/www.france24.com\/es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-66805 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/unnamed-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"345\" height=\"100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/unnamed-1-1.jpg 345w, https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/unnamed-1-1-150x43.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 345px) 100vw, 345px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>INTERVIEW | FIML COMMISSIONS | ORGANIZATIONS | BUSINESS The Ibero-American Network of Film Commissions (IBEROFIC) has reached a milestone with <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/en\/2026\/06\/16\/entrevista-exclusiva-carolina-cordero-el-gran-desafio-para-iberofic-es-sostener-la-cooperacion-regional\/\">&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":69642,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[248,87,15,254,49,77,31,45,11,237,80,256,73,17,79,47],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-70258","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-audiencias","category-caja-principal","category-cine","category-coproduccion","category-entrevistas","category-foros","category-internacional","category-medios","category-negocios","category-noticias","category-ott","category-series","category-telenovelas-series","category-television","category-tv-abierta","category-tv-de-pagp"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70258","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=70258"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70258\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":70272,"href":"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/70258\/revisions\/70272"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/69642"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=70258"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=70258"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tvmasmagazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=70258"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
