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 distant movies so i think with a lot of comfort i can say that movies is the really important and very fast growing market in russian but yet do you maybe have a feeling that could just a company came a little late to the russian market. in our view it was exactly the right time. disney in order to develop new sort 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 entertainment shows we publish books games we do sell our programming a lot of channels will introduce a new channel in 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. an audience 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 for european mean what do russian companies need to catch up with a standard itself their western production companies i would say catching up maybe not exactly the right word. in russia there is amazing history of story telling and for this new russia for 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 some how we tell stories how the characters develop and we always have the happy ending you know the distilleries that's really interesting to us actually of. a stable hollywood tradition here in russia or just a russian audience needs to be fat 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. that 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 and we tapped into something that was not done in russia for

a long time is the quality family entertainment and family stories which we see can travel around the world because with book of masters 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 pasture here in russia as alice in wonderland all over the world but even 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 in russia 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 the success commercial success of the 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. 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. movies and we hope that in the near future there will be very successful examples of that most. of the recent releases of war converge to 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 one of the annual losses for this name for your unit of display here in russia and how do you fight it how do you protect your intellectual property piracy is definitely a big issue for little in russia but in

a lot of countries what we've seen recently that people tried 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 and brewery 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 more revenues are growing and what we see especially recently that they 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 pirates market is decreasing how many foreign competition actually say that'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 distinct global corporations facing the same problems here will this new company. in two thousand and six and imagine at that time there was nobody 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 through 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 the world distant company and we really exchange a lot of best practices with our colleagues and also 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 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 chips for just saying for years and years now

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 kids love the movies kid loves old soviet movies and mated movies so i don't think it will influence strongly yes it's one of the very interesting and important types old animation which will weigh in. if together with all the other types of information thank you very much thank you.

despite israel insisting it's easing the economic blockade. and the worldwide welcome for twenty eleven a quick trip around the globe to join the highlights of the new. kept waiting forty six moscow time was talksport now this is. something for your view from stamford bridge with chelsea always did aston villa in the english premier league or they did that a few minutes ago but not much just right kevin there just as you said of the match and it ended with a draw of three three and it could have gone either way in the last ten minutes of that match but i'll have the details on that plus some more. action from russian football fields an ice hockey rink they write their. hello and welcome to sport an r.c. coming to you from the russian capital on call for the let's jump straight to the

events that made it to the top of our bullets and that's our. thriller played out at stamford bridge where despite a furious chelsea com back aston villa held on for a three three draw. now these guys are usually the teams the last hope against sun relenting forwards from the opposition will take a look at the saints of the kontinental hockey league. the russian football in the twenty eight cents season than of the sport in this country and for all football to novel mark bennetts gives artsy his sake on the league's top list from last year. and kicking off with the english premier league chelsea's struggles continue in twenty eleven despite staging a late khan back the blues only managed a draw at home to aston villa now frank lampard with the hosts from the spots in the twenty third before being young equaliser also from the squad late in the first half heskey put villa two minutes into the second and then fans which was maybe the

most amazing ten minutes of football and the game he had rolled by equalized again at six minutes from time john terry got the lead in the eighty nine but clarke salvaged the points for villa in injury time chelsea boss the main in the sables two points behind top of them. we continue now with part soo of writer mark bennett's russian premier league team of the year richard reid speaks to the author of football d.m. all who makes the best in me field and that's at moving on to midfield will start to send well quite a few candidates here the likes of of denise. you know what you can cop your mind if you have a lot of he's probably got to go got to earn a place and he'll start the season quite spectacularly as schools and like amazing balls for if. given a place on the side and a nice of yeah i mean some people don't like him because they think he's an idiot.

he was involved in a bust up with spartak moscow as manager carpenter. i think his energy and his just aggression give like maybe the edge and it will be interesting to see how he does next year and as a whole other than the champions league because of course they'll go straight through into the group stages no one has to face any tricky french sides in the qualify. or cause. a great start to his career went off the boil perhaps a bit off of the world cup but i mean you've got a long season and inevitable after the world cup of course. it's always been a pretty girl season pretty consistent and again the second attack. but i mean i was really impressed by christian not war this season first year of captaincy of being and he really took on the mantle the responsibility eight goals for midfield a real driving force inside who really struggled to score goals for a long long period of the season. more impressive in the champions league games

rather than in the russian premier league itself interested occasionally champions they can like rubens attack they can score goals from open play in the film and. i think he's got the only goal against barcelona. one of the only two it's called yes but also. from the beginning. the two goals are those which again shows that he was ready to take on responsibility because barcelona. when we. were diving anyone can look past danny came back from a very serious injury. stunning season. he was great i mean when it before he had his injury he was playing really well. there are worries that he wouldn't be able to achieve the same height so he came. along will stay in russia because this is the base for interest in the world and he's very moving to the right hand side of it failed i think this is a bit more tricky. d.d.

was so impressive but he only played the season after being bought off the walkout was a very big impact on news media and people were surprised that he was able to adapt so well because when the last british player got to come in from the collective didn't have. a very successful career in russia and your headmaster problems at the station to the game to life and things was made it just seems to have taken a completely in his stride of surprise a lot of people in life as well he does need i never hear him complaining was i'm very level headed here was a cold i was complaining all the time about like taxes were too expensive he couldn't get sky t.v. and things and. all you ever hear about him is he seems to talk then he's a good grade to the russian game and it's ok well it's for midfield defense and it's all about moving on into attack well springs to mind nineteen goals top scorer really really held together for long periods nothing he does is a place in the team where people often criticize him because it's

a thing of he fails to perform in really important crucial matches which. takes discipline. really. really helped. me but as you say. carmen leave him out of the side there's also a little it is cool consistency if he ever does take of the offer. and explicit suggestion he might want to when they play for the russian national team. for support strike over second strike a few candidates one the stronger one was. played for them completely off the radar but i've had a completely break this is career really with tom he's a good player and sportswriter most of them go. and then came back with times can prove. they were wrong too and go for the number one is over the counter cough i mean it is a game of two home schooled one since the first thirteen games much school twelve times some a break. there's not

a critical piece of excellent discussion that's all going. to get my kids prolific so. people who go be in contention for it or maybe. another one exactly who came back after the summer break and again really. push to try and win the launch and i think we have to have time really to the team yes. i go with so i can look for the brazilian link up a combination of style ok thanks so much there's only been three for me. now let's move on to the senate where the new year didn't start very well for the next tennis national team as they lost both opening rubbers to serbia in the one cup first former world number one. came a tie break in the opening set and then ease of its second against. them the favorites had another scare as a goal of the first over at world number three in about jock of age but the joker

was able to recover to win three and that's that so i put the serbs. now over to the n.b.a. where them miami heat's more and more looks like the force everyone had in vision them to be the brawn weight and company overcoming its once a point deficit to beat the visiting golden state warriors there is. also both with the highlights. the heat winners of four straight coming into the game and wayne wade has been playing out of his mind but the warriors come out shooting the lights out how about a little new year half court buzzer beater from montane list golden state up by eight after quarter and he will carry on to the second former heat guard or will wright feeling comfortable in his old g.m. splashes the three at six of them and with the thirty points but late in the second he start to come alive le bron james grabs the board and then finds his favorite right receiver dwayne wade for the bucket and the foul on the break. and in the

third the heat really stepped up defensively should join us and gals because with this trip on david lee le bron picks it up and says catch me if you can twenty five points with ten assists and seven and we bounce for l.b.j. on the night some more of the same going to be make the stop and get out and run with brown hands it off to wait again as the warriors fourteen point halftime leave this down to just to where he had an almost similar line of twenty five eight and six early in the final frame another big golden state passed leading to a quick transition off and this time james jones he hadn't the money ball and the heat already have a four point advantage and they were able to hold on for the rare occasion here of le bron tonight on the drive but miami retain possession and marriott chalmers thinks that they're going from behind the arc for an eight point lead miami are now tied with the boston celtics for the best record in the eastern conference meet us from our team. well artsy has already entered sayings you know with the best goals

from the concert as a hockey league's third season has had to all first sell far but there were also games were it not why there's managed to steal the show with that the best moments and here they are they pulled sales help saves.
