AFM Spotlight: FoxTelecolombia

SANTA MONICA: This market is the inaugural outing for FoxTelecolombia in Santa Monica.

“We are very excited to attend, as we will be promoting the vast production services we offer in Colombia,” says Ana María Barreto, the commercial director at FoxTelecolombia. She also highlights a new film law that has been approved by the Colombian government that will “benefit all the international producers that want to come to our country to film. What this legislation basically offers is a 40-percent cost rebate on all production services and a 20-percent cost rebate of all transportation, catering and accommodation expenses to those projects that are shot in Colombia.”

The company has a number of international productions to its credit, including Mental. It also produced the premiere special for the fifth season of Burn Notice, “The Fall of Sam Axe.” The company is working on the second season of El Capo (Don Pedro: The Drug Lord) for RCN and MundoFox, as well as the second season of Lynch, produced for MovieCity.
