A good fiction requires talent and chemistry between authors, producers and broadcasters. But this is not always enough. It requires two additional parameters necessary: time and stability. What direction the fiction seems to France Télévisions have been four or five years. A French village, witnesses, Chiefs, Extinct, now Ten percent: as many series that eventually impose a bolder editorial line.
“The management chain accepts programs with more personality, recognizes the writer Fanny Herrero, coming of A French village, to take over the writing of Ten percent three years ago. You have to trust. ” Clearly, the broadcaster must rein screenwriters and producers.
This confidence has prevailed for Ten percent a foray into stardom officers whose compensation is proportional to stamps affected by their customers. In a text remained famous, Ten Percent Of Your Life wrote in 1952, the American novelist Raymond Chandler believed that this occupational category for which he had no great consideration, lived by consuming one-tenth the lives of the authors. The image that give Fanny Herrero and the director Cédric Klapisch is less cynical and less disillusioned. It is even at times very funny, tender and human.
To explore this unknown world of the public, a candid necessary. It takes Camille traits that integrates the bottom of the scale, talent agency ASK suddenly threatened by the accidental death of its founder. The three main partners, Mathias, Andrea Liliane and trying to adapt to the situation under the gaze of the new trainee.
Soap public
The project Ten percent was born in the mid 2000s from an idea of Dominique Besnehard, agent dozens of famous actors. Contacts are made with Canal +. Opinions differ on the tone to adopt. The history is stored in a drawer until 2011. Harold Valentin, former France 2, where he had worked on the series Clara Sheller, and became an independent producer, digs. He sees a coherent subject with what he had started on the public channel. Because there is a filiation between Clara Sheller and Ten percent at least in tone.
This new series takes, according to Valentin, to be a “soap” general public which focuses on “métisser professional issues through personal issues.” Knowledge of the arts community Dominique Besnehard itself as a key asset: his anecdotes feed the script and give it an authentic and credible response. A detective story, which appeared in early versions, is removed in favor of dramatic comedy.

“France 2 Us left considerable freedom in tone, admits Fanny Herrero. We did not want something too scratchy, too cynical or too ’boutique’. One could produce a scenario which reassured without betraying what we want to do. “Result:. Ten percent shows a real modernity in themes In a well-known process, each chapter focuses on one or more guests. Cécile de France Line Renaud and Françoise Fabian, Nathalie Baye and Laura Smet, Adrey Fleurot, Joey Starr and Julie Gayet and François Berléand These guests, employees with remarkable subtlety, are placed in the likely situations sometimes inspired by real events, which are all the salt of comedy.
Behind the scenes has emerged this year as a great place to explore France 2. In February, Chefs, Arnaud Malherbe and Marion Festraets, led the audience in the kitchen of a renowned restaurant, Le Paris, led by the Head, who saw happen in his Roman brigade, a juvenile delinquent trying to reintegrate . to his release from prison tours behind the scenes, Heads and Ten percent have a common DNA fairly universal themes: father’s place, parentage hidden, the loyalty, authority and legitimacy of power.
The strategy of drivers
2015 was also an opportunity to discover Cookies new thriller of Marc and Hervé Hadmar Herpoux renouaient that the atmosphere of their iconic series The forgotten (2008). The action takes place at Tréport in winter, when the tourists have deserted beaches giving way to gray skies, rain and wind. Thierry Lhermitte, older cop, partnered with Marie Dompnier to solve a gruesome investigation: the exhumed corpses of local cemeteries are displayed in model homes in the region.

These three series will all be 2 seasons, while waiting, probably in 2016, Malaterra, Corsica based adaptation of the British series Broadchurch which obtained audience records when it was broadcast on F2. A similar strategy has presided over the series Accused inspired by Accused, production of BBC and aired in January.
If the public channel today draws a strong editorial line by leveraging consumer series with a strong personality, the question of the future remains unanswered. At its first re-entry conference, the new boss of France Televisions, Delphine Ernotte, revived an old sea serpent, the “pilot”. Going through these witnesses is a former episodes desire of some authors and producers who see it as a way to give a clear personality to their projects.
This practice, at the base of the US television industry, can it turn a French production that is based on the economy of fear? Not sure both are rooted fears: the fear of public broadcasters, authors and producers are afraid of broadcasters and everyone is afraid of competition, while the Scandinavian series, British or Israeli necessary. In terms of quantity, the French production is rising again. He is happy to focus today on the quality and personality. The soft consensus never broke three-legged duck. Neither a series.
