it's now six thirty pm here in the russian capital you are with odds here as we're doing a recap of the stories that shape the week. georgia's arrest of thirteen alleged russian spies a political fos aimed at scoring political points back home to police he's moved was also met with mistrust. one of russia's top investigative journalists is severely beaten in moscow police say a leg questions professional activity was likely to be behind the time. dimitri medvedev store owner. russia's far east to cool real islands has angered japan which also claims the territory but moscow says its ownership is beyond dispute and promises to invest in the remote region. president obama's party suffers a defeat in u.s. midterm elections but many you say it's ordinary americans who have really lost out as big business played a big part in deciding the outcome. while coming up next sophie

shevardnadze discusses the future of the movie industry and a particular tastes of russian viewers with the head of the disney company for russia and the c.i.s. enjoy. my initial golf was kind of thank you very much for this interview thank you very much for the invitation now more and more russian films take part in an international film festival so sexually mean that movies are becoming a full fledged business in russia all this new company came few years ago for the russian market and since then the whole movie industry in russia picked up and now russian box office is one of the leading in the world for a lot of this new movies so i think with a lot of comfort i can say that. this is the really important and very fast growing

market in russian but yet do you have maybe have a feeling that could just make company came a little late to the russian market. in our view it was exactly the right time. in order to develop needs a lot of infrastructure just maybe a few words about our business in russia movies is definitely one of the very important businesses for us movies distribution production are very happy about our first very successful experience with book with masters we do a lot of consumer products we do live into taman shows we publish books games we do sell our programming on a lot of channels. channel and russian so for all of that to happen i mean the economy needs to be prepared so what kind of products to us to snare actually sell in russia and in the c.i.s. countries with multiple consumer products starting with. a lot of stationary

obviously games toys etc one of the most important trends which i would really like to specify during the last few years the amount of products that would be produced in russia for the right. tripled if you look into the products that was in russia for the russian audience most of them in russia on the russian industrial enterprises when european mean what do russian companies need to catch up with a standard itself western production companies i would say catching up maybe not exactly the right word. in russia there is amazing history of story telling and in russia the country would like to get inspiration from the russian stories and make movies based on the russian heritage and culture but use some of the heritage that we have in the world this new company and tell them how we tell stories how the characters develop and we always have the happy ending you know

that this is what's really interesting to us actually of. a stable hollywood tradition here in russia or just a russian audience needs to be felt like a very specific context that it's used to strongly believe that russian audience has very distant taste definitely a lot of big blockbusters work in russia and russian audience love. their love alice in wonderland but at the same time there are a lot of stories that can be told specifically for the russian audience and we believe without fairytales that we started with masters we tapped into something that was not done in russia for a long time it's the quality family entertainment and family stories which we see can travel around the world because with. prizes in various festivals around the world what we see in traditional russian stories can also travel just beyond the

russian audience even though the book of masters was created for the russian origin specifically was book of masters as big of a block baster here in russia as alice in wonderland all over the world basically my question is what kind of movie is profitable to produce and fresh. in order to make profits like blockbusters make in the west for the movies to be successful the audience needs to be interested in the movie and the box office obviously is one of the very important drivers for the revenue for any of the movies t.v. rights definitely is very important part of that and other distributions like d.v.d. blu ray and digital distribution so what does this need to do with digital content what do you deal with it digital content and digitalization is one of the very important strategies for us russian more and more content is being. used and distributed in digital form and one of the exciting tendencies that we see

is that more content that we create in russia now travel abroad for example mobile games. and digital games is to success commercial success of film inevitably linked with the way that film is advertised i think yes but different movies might require very different advertising yes it could be advertising on t.v. billboards in the recent time a very important part of advertising is social advertising and social communities on the internet there are a lot of examples already in this country and in other countries where the audience loves it not necessarily you have to facing budget but they really a lot of people come to see the movie if they feel it's worth seeing and spending the time there is the major question for filmmakers after the success of avatar hollywood companies including this may have started to take advantage of the three d. format when you think there were companies will begin to use this format to its full

potential as we see right now some of the russian companies started producing three d. . and we hope that in the near future there will be very successful examples of that most. of the recent releases of war converged movies so now we're waiting for a really true three d. movie when it would be short as a three d. movie because the production process requires very different cameras equipment post-production process that d.v.d.'s is one of the sources of your income's piracy is a huge problem in russia where the annual losses for this name for your unit have to stay here in russia and how do you fight it how do you protect your intellectual property piracy is definitely a big issue for the not only in russia but in a lot of countries what we see recently that people try to buy quality content and they used to buying d.v.d.'s in retail we also developed

a lot of programs for various price points and we work with a lot of retail partners to make sure that we get a quality legal product to the audiences for very different price points and what we see our d.v.d. sales on blu ray a growing really really fast even though we know that now the market is changing and blu ray and digital distribution is really around the corner but still a lot of families buy d.v.d.'s they want to watch movies together they buy it for their kids so would you say their losses in piracy are aren't considerable in numbers we don't really calculate that so we do calculate how much. growing and what we see especially recently that the pirated market might be decreasing because we sell more and more d.v.d.'s again not only very expensive ones but for mass audience and do we believe that the piracy market is decreasing so many foreign competition actually say it's very difficult to make business in russia and they're citing corruption and bureaucracy as main stumbling points would you say that the

unit or your unit of the local corporation speccing the same problems here will this new company established. in two thousand and six at the time there was nobody in and two. we were able to build a very strong business and we're leaders in a lot of segments that are important for us we haven't seen them more than two hundred people working in this office so i believe if you really have a strategy of well thought of if you have a strong team of people you can be very successful in this market the only global major studio not to have its distribution offices here in russia or browsers. ready for an emergence of such serious competitor what would change if warner brothers were to open their distribution offices in russia all of the major studios are present in russia where the direct office is all through their partners so already russia is one of the major markets for the hollywood studios and is growing

even more do you guys use the specialists from the office and queue up more from the global display here in russia there are seven strategic territories in all different company and we really exchange a lot of best practices with our colleagues not only in the u.s. about in other territories as well there's a lot of similarities between russian market in america for example there is interesting examples that we can learn from in china or japan you know the japanese animation has become really popular with the children and especially on the cartoon market do you think maybe there's a chance that japanese animation will actually squeeze out the traditional cartoon which has actually been bergen in chip for years and. when t.v. . everybody said all the theater will die all of this. so i think there is very different types of entertainment that people would like and definitely japanese animation is a very very important part of that kids love the movies kid loves old movies

and emitted movies so i don't think it will influence strongly yes it's one of the very interesting and important. information which will weigh. if together with all the other types of information. do you think we'll be successful in two thousand and eleven zero where really excited about two thousand and eleven for us it's already started because all financial year and said the end of september for us the new very interesting releases are obviously tangled very exciting movie and next year we're really really looking forward to releasing pirates of the caribbean right now thank you very much chris and thank you.
