Eduardo Galdo
Secuoya Studios reinforces its commitment to the creation, production and distribution of audiovisual content with the launch of Secuoya Studios Stories, a new creative area dedicated to the production and co-production of long-running fiction series. At the head of this new department is Eduardo Galdo, who together with its team of scriptwriters will exclusively develop projects for the Hispanic market and will lead the production and co-production of adaptations of major international hits
"Eduardo Galdo's experience in the design, creation and production of long-running fiction content is undeniable, with thousands of episodes of some of the longest-running national productions in the history of Spanish television. We are happy to have him join Secuoya Studios and we are convinced of his formidable contribution to the consolidation of the studio as a reference in the development of Spanish-language content for the global market," said Raúl Berdonés, CEO of Grupo Secuoya.
"It is the best scenario a showrunner could ever dream of. Whatever you need to tell your story better, it gives you the opportunity to establish synergies with the group's multiple companies. This is truly a 360° creation! If we were asked to define the objective of the new Secuoya Studios Stories, it is easy: to captivate the hearts of 600 million Spanish speakers with great stories," Galdo commented.
According to the company, the projects undertaken by this creative department, which will include screenwriters with a long professional career, such as Lele Portas, will be characterized by the quality of their narrative and their high production standards, adding a wealth of outdoor locations and natural scenery where great stories can be developed, capable of traveling around the world, attracting platforms, pay or general channels, and winning over the most loyal audience to the genre, as well as the new generations.
Among other lines of action for Secuoya Studios Stories is the intention to option the rights of literary works to make their audiovisual adaptation, analyze original projects by independent screenwriters with the aim of launching the project jointly or after acquiring the IP. The studio will also approach other successful formats in streaming, as well as creating stories in-house.
● CO-PRODUCTION AGREEMENT WITH AY YAPIM
At the same time, Galdo will also be in charge of Secuoya Studios' first collaboration agreement with the Ay Yapim factory, a leader in Turkish audiovisual production, to develop adaptations of major international hits. The executive producer from Granada will be the producer of the joint projects and will work hand in hand with a team of Spanish and Turkish creatives in order to analyze the most attractive projects for the Hispanic market.
