MIPTV Spotlight: AFL Productions

CANNES: A leading provider of dialogue-free, hidden-camera and home-video shows, AFL Productions has made more than 6,000 clips available as part of its new Gags Network.

This includes segments from Naked & Funny, Crazy TV Pranks, Painfully Funny and other AFL shows. The company also has Recipes for All!, a set of non-dialogue shorts designed to showcase the best international recipes. The original miniseries Curse of the Diamonds, meanwhile, takes place at the tail end of World War II. “Drama, action, intrigue and love are all intertwined with the politics of Russia, Great Britain and America in this exciting, beautifully produced series,” says Yuri Volodarsky, the head of development and distribution at AFL.
