Jan Mojto’s production company Beta Film and ZDF Enterprises, the commercial arm of German public broadcaster ZDF, have confirmed the launch of a new joint venture for scripted series.
The company branded Intaglio Films will be headquartered in Berlin and led by multi Emmy Award winning producer Frank Doelger, Executive Producer on HBO’s Game of Thrones, John Adams and Rome. Doelger will spearhead the company’s development and production slate, acting as bureau chief and leveraging his expertise and long-running creative relationships with broadcasters.
Beta Film’s Managing Director Moritz von Kruedener and Robert Franke, Vice-President of ZDF Enterprises Drama, will manage the business affairs of the joint venture which became public in September 2017.
“Of all the opportunities presented to me upon completion of Game of Thrones, the new joint venture proposed by Beta Film and ZDF Enterprises was by far the most interesting and creatively challenging,” said Doelger. “Backed by the formidable resources of Beta and ZDF Enterprises, and their shared vision for Intaglio, I am looking forward to continuing to work with the established creative community, as well as emerging talent, on both sides of the Atlantic.”
