MIPCOM Spotlight: Terra Mater Factual Studios

CANNES: Two three-part miniseries are at the top of Terra Mater Factual Studios’ highlights.

Nature’s Greatest Talents shines a light on the topics of smartness, camouflage and seduction within the animal kingdom, while Wild Winners puts a focus on three types of animals: wild cats, birds and primates.

The company also has the special Back from the Brink: Saving the King’s Horses, which focuses on the Trakehner horse breed.

“A huge number of channels air natural-history and science programs in very prominent slots or even dedicate their whole output to these genres, so there’s an unbroken demand for high-quality content in the international market,” says Sabine Holzer, Terra Mater’s head of TV. “Making use of new technologies, working with unusual perspectives and finding new angles of storytelling, we’re providing cutting-edge docs for the market.”
