Breaking Borders:The international success of Danish Television Drama
No full textIn Denmark, the Sunday night dramas of the public service broadcaster DR are somewhat of a national ritual. Until recently, Danes thought these series to be only for the Danes, but since 2002 they have also found international acclaim and distribution. The Killing and Borgen are the most recent examples of this success. Based on theories of media creativity, genre and globalization, this chapter addresses how to understand the international interest in series from a small national television culture. We analyse the production framework of DR’s in-house drama unit, which has concepts such as ‘one vision’ and ‘double storytelling’ as guidelines for creating quality drama. Moreover, the chapter focuses on audience patterns for the series and aspects of their international distribution and reception

No full textThis chapter investigates the production strategies of the Danish Broadcasting Corporation (DR) when making live action fiction for its children’s channel and brand DR Ramasjang, targeting pre-schoolers. Based on a case study of the serial Oda Omvendt [Oda Upside Down], the chapter begins by discussing the reasons behind DR’s decision to produce more national live action fiction for the youngest audience members. Following this, the case study of Oda Upside Down demonstrates how the commissioning, writing, and production of the series can be regarded as the result of clear institutional strategies for working with talent development, with notions of affordable volume fiction, and with portable brand characters.<br/
