Telcast Lands 3-D Deal in Turkey

MUNICH: A raft of 3-D titles from Telcast Media Group have been sold to Turkey’s Dogan TV for its pay-TV HD channel Cool Smart.

Cool Smart is set to air Telcast’s 12-part travel series 3-D Planet, as well as its 3-D Safari specials made in Africa and Indonesia and Mega Shark. Telcast’s productions offer 3-D quality with 3-D glasses, but also guarantees clear picture quality to the naked eye.

Angelika Stebbings, Telcast’s international senior sales manager, said: “I am delighted that Cool Smart will be showing Telcast’s 3-D programming on HD as it recognizes the extraordinary 2-D quality of the programs. However, to ensure that Cool Smart viewers get the full breathtaking effect of 3-D, the group’s listing magazine D-Smart will carry free 3-D glasses for every reader. This is Telcast’s first agreement with Dogan and I hope it will be the beginning of a long and mutually beneficial relationship.”
