A strong series needs three things: a compelling theme. Characters you won’t forget. And images that stay with you.
It sounds simple – but it isn’t. What makes a truly good TV series is the invisible web of narrative structure, aesthetics and rhythm that runs through every single episode. Each episode strong enough to stand on its own. Together, strong enough to build lasting audience loyalty.
At Basiliscus Film, we think of series from start to finish: from the initial concept through the visual language to the final episode. We develop formats that have a distinctive look – yet never feel predictable. Fresh in every episode. Recognisable in every shot.
For Deutsche Welle, we have developed and produced cross-media series formats – for television and the internet, nationally and internationally. With small, agile teams that are close to the people. With stories that get under your skin. With images you won’t forget in a hurry.
Do you have an idea for a series – or are you looking for someone to develop one for you? We’re here to listen. And then we’ll get started.
