One of the top drama decision-makers in the Nordics, Ivar Køhn has been heading Norwegian pubcaster’s drama department since 2013. Under his helm, some of Norway’s most international lauded TV shows have been produced or co-produced, from “Nobel” , “Mammon 2” , “Home Ground” , “State of Happiness” , to “22 July” .
You’ve been head of drama at NRK since 2013. What major changes have you implemented to adapt to the digital shift? Then our other divisions Entertainment and Kids and Youth order their own programs. “Skam,” for instance, and the latest successful youth show “Rod Knock” were commissioned by our youth division. We are a small group of executive producers/commissioners and we work closely together on editorial and budget decisions. It’s a very smooth process.
We’ve noticed that in recent years, it’s been harder and harder to raising financing for our premium shows. Our funding through our public service tax is not increasing, while competition from global streamers and production costs are spiralling. Indie producers struggle to finance their projects without selling all rights to global streamers.
We have no strings attached to any distributor or sales company. We figured out the best way to finance a project is on a case by case basis.The fact is that global streamers aren’t really interested in co-investing in our shows, as contractually, we require from producers to have exclusive rights for at least seven years to protect our own streamer. We want Norwegians to identify NRK.TV with the best place to find great Norwegian content.
You’ve mentioned the role of public service TV. What do you think of EBU drama members’ proposal to join forces to produce a string of high budget projects a year, with a 30-day window to enter as co-producers, as announced inhttps://variety.com/2021/film/global/france-televisions-manuel-alduy-european-broadcasting-union-series-mania-1235052636/
