TV’s approach in broadcasting series has changed / News from “87 Meter” and “Mousi” – Mehr News Agency Iran and world’s news
According to Mehr reporter, Mehdi Naqoyan, the head of Simafilm, told reporters about the projects “Mosei”, “Salman” and the new approaches of the broadcaster to broadcast series: “The series “Mosei (PBUH)” is in progress, but the production of this work is ongoing. Along with the new technologies we are waiting for these to be prepared and then we will start working.
He also said about the “Salman Farsi” series: “Salman Farsi” is being filmed these days and he was following his usual process during the pause. These days, this collection follows the production steps according to the schedule given by the producer. It was expected that a part of the film would be filmed in the summer, and then it would be stopped for a month or two to build the sets, and the production would continue, and they are still on the set.
The head of Simafilm also said about the series “87 meters” and its broadcast on TV: We have submitted this series to the platforms and we are waiting for the answer. The ball is not in our court at the moment and no answer has been provided by the platforms, recently it has also been provided to Telebion itself and we are waiting for the answer.
He also explained about the latest news from the “Capital” series: It was rumored that the head of the organization had a meeting with the creators of “Capital”, which was denied. The problem is that we have a new approach in the transformation document, one of the clauses of which is the movement to make the second season of former series, which is usually with the actors of that series. Negotiations have also been held with “Capital”. The negotiations are also serious and whenever the result is reached, there is no news that can be hidden and it will be announced.
In response to Mehr’s reporter, Naqoyan said about the reduction of satirical series: the problem of satirical series, whose quantity has decreased, is our own concern, but good satire must be produced in order to be produced. You yourself know that the platforms have not been able to make a good comedy so far that even reaches the second and third season. Humor is a complex work and it is not just a will on our part. Professional teams should also be ready to work. Before, there were only limited teams that did comical work, and now maybe those teams are not working, or they are underemployed, or they have gone out of business.
He added: Currently, apart from “Zirkhaki” and “Nun.Kh”, which are good brands that we are working on, and “Capital” that we are negotiating with, we also have the comedy “Badel” directed by Ali Masoudi, which we hope Nowruz will arrive this year. “Qol Mardoone” and “Honeymoon” are also wonderful scripts that we are now in the stage of selecting the actors for these scripts.
In the other part of his talk, the head of Simafilm stated about the changes in the broadcasting system on television: 2 series are planned for each channel. From Saturday to Wednesday, channels 1 and 3 have separate series, and Thursday and Friday have their second series. We are loyal to this and from the next month or two, these programs will become regular.
In response to Mehr’s reporter, he asked why Channel Two has only been rebroadcasting for a long time. He said: Channel 2 is going to have special series in Nowruz and Ramadan. This is also a big decision, not Simafilm’s decision. It is the right decision. Why should the audience watch three new series a day, in addition to the fact that we also have IFilm and Tamasha channels and foreign series.
Regarding the lack of new series from Sima, Naqoyan said: broadcasting three series a day is a high conductor for the audience, and it is not good that the TV conductor is only at the disposal of the series and not at the disposal of the television programs from 8:00 p.m. until the end of the night.
In response to why the main channels shouldn’t have new productions, he reminded: Channel Two is going to have special sitcom series in addition to special programs and will broadcast our produced sitcoms. Also, the successful series will be broadcasted on this network from now on. Of course, these are new security series that are attractive to the audience.
The head of Simafilm answered that this approach is due to the production series not being ready or there is another reason. .
