Nordisk FilmTV Makes Pan-Scandinavian Roll Out Deal With Elk Entertainment

Banijay Group's Nordisk FilmTV ha been selected as production partner of choice to roll out new commissions across Scandinavia.
They have agreed an exclusive output deal with Elk Entertainment, the new independent content creation company from the former heads of Friday TV (Minute to Win It, Clash of the Choirs).
The pan-Scandinavian deal is the first of its kind for the renowned Swedish format devisors and will engage Nordisk FilmTV’s production units across Denmark, Norway and Finland to pitch and produce all future titles in the catalogue to broadcasters throughout the Nordic territories for two years.
The deal was negotiated by Banijay International, the sales and acquisitions arm of Banijay Group.
Estelle Bodén, CEO, ELK said: "Nordisk FilmTV has something we love: Long, solid production experience from the trenches of TV-production combined with great innovation, openness and creativity. Nordisk’s companies deliver top-notch programming across Scandinavia and are highly respected by all Nordic broadcasters."
Peter Hansen CCO, Nordisk FilmTV, said: "Elk Entertainment is one of the most – if not the most - talented and creative format devisors in Scandinavia. We are extremely proud to enter into this agreement. Nordisk FilmTV has some of the strongest producers within all genres in the region, so the combination of the unique creativity of Elk Entertainment and Nordisk FilmTV´s production competencies is a dream match!"
