After enduring endless months of COVID-19 lockdown, Chile’s film and TV industry is revving up production once more. And several women are leading the charge.
Various high-profile titles are either in production or setting up dates, such as season two of Lucía Puenzo’s hit series “La Jauria” and, starting this month, Francisca Alegria’s debut feature, “The Cow Who Sang a Song About the Future.” Fernando Guzzoni’s “Blanquita” aims to start principal photography by July, says producer Giancarlo Nasi of Quijote Films, who also presides over Chile’s Film Arts Academy, founded in 2018.

Leading Thailand production company The Film Factory has produced advertising films for leading Thai brands for the past 30 years. This year they are transforming the company into a new “Multi-Independent Company” model, to match the working style of the future.
This new model underlines “Quality & Agility”. The Film Factory will not abandon its unique expertise, but it will be more agile while keeping the highest quality of work at a reasonable price and an unparalleled speed.
The centrally production-controlled organization will transform into the “Multi-Independent Company” with six affiliate companies of different expertise. This corresponds to a changing landscape of modern communication, from a single movie speaking to the entire country to specific content for a target group. However, an internal network will allow each company to exchange information and upskill one another.
