Story Productions to attend NATPE in Miami
Catherine Balston • Jan 18, 2019
The São Paulo-based independent production company will be joining a delegation of Brazilian content producers to attend the global content and television conference
The international audiovisual conference season is kicking off already, with NATPE Miami Marketplace & Conference 2019 just days away, from 22-24 January. Creative director at Story Productions, Nick Story will be attending the three-day event, as part of a Brazilian delegation, organised by Brazilian Content, the Brazilian Association of Independent TV Producers’ (BRAVI) export programme, in partnership with Apex, the Brazilian Trade and Investment Promotion Agency.
It’s not all dry martinis by the pool side, though, as Nick well knows from his long career on the conference circuit; last year he did back-to-back visits to MIP Cancun, IDFA (International Documentary Filmfestival Amsterdam), London Content and the Asia TV Forum in Singapore.
Nick will be attending the NATPE Miami Marketplace & Conference 2019 this year for the first time, and continuing the conversations he started at conferences late last year; “The projects we presented last year were very well received and got a lot of interest,” says Nick. “Our goal now is to secure funding and move them forward. We’re excited to have a slate of fantastic projects.”

The jewel in the crown for Story Productions this year is Formula Dreams, a reality series about young karting drivers that will be moving into post-production shortly. Also in our slate is a historical docu-drama about expeditions in the Amazon Rainforest and a feature-length documentary which we will co-produce with Spring Films and Doclab about Juan Manuel Fangio, considered to be one of the greatest Formula 1 drivers of all time. Spring Films’s Andre Singer co-directed a feature length documentary with Werner Herzog about Mikhail Gorbachev, due for release this year.
NATPE is not just about buying and selling, however. With models of content creation, distribution and monetization changing from one month to the next, conferences like NATPE are an important chance for indies to exchange ideas and explore ways to be part of the disrupting media landscape. As new and old technologies converge and the distinction between broadcaster and audience blurs, being part of the conversation about this brave new media world is more critical than ever.
Brazilian Content will have a stand at the event. “We are hoping to promote content made in Brazil by attracting buyers to our stand and enabling the Brazilian production companies to sell and create partnerships with the Latin-American, North-American and hispanic markets,” says Rachel do Valle, executive manager of Brazilian Content.
