Welcome to the DETECt Crime Series Webinar!

The crime series is a great way to study what makes TV series tick. Crime is, in terms of production volume and ratings, the most popular fiction genre in Europe. But why? What is the appeal of crime shows? And, more importantly, how can we write our own? Over the next ten weeks we’ll be releasing a new episode every Wednesday. In each episode in this series we are going to discuss one specific element found in TV crime series.

In episode 8 we talk about how you can create your own series concept. Any good TV series will contain engaging characters, a fascinating world and a conflict that cannot be resolved that easily. Host Benjamin Harris will go over these elements with producers Philipp Steffens, Klaus Zimmermann and Sven Clausen before explaining how to present it all in a standard pitch paper.
