We arrived at LA Screenings with 9 countries and since then have added two more, RTP from Bolivia and Novazul from Dominican Republic, with which we reached 11 markets that have our format Escándalos (26×60´). We are very happy. Escándalos was a great novelty in the New York upfront, with the opportunity of being in primetime on an American network with an independent product, said to PRODU Roxana Rotundo, founder and president of VIP 2000.She announced that the second season is already being shot, it will have 40 episodes, because in some countries they want to purchase the series as a daily run and they need three months of content. For the end of 2015 we want to have 60 finished episodes, because there are many countries that want to air it from Monday to Friday in the telenovela schedule, she said. On the other hand, she informed that Curaçao is now producing Escándalos, which is already being made in Miami, Mexico and Panama.They also presented their new product Tómame o Déjame (13×60´), which started being shot last Monday with the producing company Nirvana Films in Miami. We are ready to deliver it in October. We already have two offers in Hispanic US, but have not yet chosen which one, and also have an offer in Puerto Rico. The series cast grew and is very interesting, said Rotundo.She said that VIP 2000 TV works with independent producers in order to be able to focus on distribution.
