Resumen de Germany: : Public service TV broadcasters’ framework agreement with Producers’ Alliance
After three years of negotiations, the public service broadcasters ARD and ZDF have renegotiated the “Framework Agreement on contractual co-operation on joint film/television productions and comparable cinema co-productions” with the Allianz Deutscher Produzenten - Film & Fernsehen (Alliance of German Producers - Film & Television, or Producers’ Alliance). The Producers’ Alliance is an independent association representing the interests of German producers of audiovisual works. It represents around 230 members, which makes it the largest association of its kind in Germany. The agreement lays down the basic conditions for drafting contracts for commissioned productions.
