THINK TANK I | SHOWRUNNING IN EUROPE: SPOTLIGHT ON JULIE ANDEM (SKAM)
Thursday, February 2, 2023, from 11:00 a.m. to 11:35 a.m. (CEST)
Part of the TV Drama Visions Conference at Göteborg International Film Festival
We were delighted to welcome Julie Andem, the creator, writer, and director of the groundbreaking and internationally acclaimed hit series »SKAM« as a panelist of the first European Showrunner Think Tank in 2023. As one of the region’s most innovative creators in the world of drama series, Andem not only succeeded in resonating with a global audience of young adults but also explored and inspired new avenues of distribution and proved how the power of storytelling could travel over social, geographic, and generational boundaries. In this fireside stage interview, we delved into Skam’s unique storytelling approach and international impact with numerous remakes all over the world, and explored what was next for Andem. A special focus was on Andem's work as a showrunner and the opportunities and challenges she saw for showrunning in Europe.
