EXCLUSIVE: Germany’s top scripted conference Seriencamp is headed for a new home in Cologne this summer, and its line-up is coming together.
The three-day event will take place between June 14-16 at the Cinenova in Cologne’s Ehrenfeld district, marking a return to a fully physical presence after a hiatus in 2022 and a hybrid event in 2021. Deadline has signed on as the event’s official media partner and will be on the ground hosting and covering panels and keynotes.
Among the those featuring at the event’s Story Exchange project market will be Paramount+, Prime Video and Amazon Studios, and Apple TV+. German networks ZDF, Sky Deutschland, RTL, Arte and ServusTV will also attend the market, in which decision makers from major international companies speak with producers, writers and creators. The focus is on collaboration and co-production.
ZDF, Paramount+, Prime Video, Sky, ZDFneo and ARD are also expected to provide first looks at German series in production. Major producers such as UFA Fiction, Wiedemann & Berg and Gaumont will present.
European commissioning club The Alliance — which comprises ZDF, France Télévisions and Rai — will will present new strategies and projects and another major European network cooperation will be unveiled for the first time.
Others appearing on keynotes and panels include veteran doc maker Marc Smerling, who will lead a masterclass on the intersection of the mechanics of storytelling between docs, fiction and audio. Sterling is best known for seminal HBO doc The Jinx and Capturing the Friedmans but has more recently been making podcast doc series, such as Apple’s 1993 World Trade Center bombing pod Operation: Tradebom.

Brent Lang Executive Editor Yellow Veil Pictures has acquired worldwide rights to “The Becomers,” a genre-bending comedy from Zach Clark. The company will launch the film at the Marche Du Film in Cannes this week. “The Becomer” tells the story of a body-snatching alien who comes to Earth, reconnects with their partner, and tries to find their way in modern America. “During the pandemic, I binged the original ‘Star Trek’ series for the first time and then I made this movie” Clark said on his latest film. “It felt like life as we knew it was ending, but then again, it also felt like that might not be the worst thing either. ‘The Becomers’ is a story of love, longing, and alienation. A kitsch-soaked, pathos-laden melodrama about our sad, sad planet. It’s the weirdest thing I’ve ever made and I can’t think of anyone better than Yellow Veil to get it out into the universe.”
