B ig-budget dramas and high-end VFX dominate as we kick off a new year of Definition, taking a detailed look at a combination of ratings hits and critically acclaimed series from the world over. We hear from specialists behind BBC and Netflix series Red Rose , as well as HBO’s behemoth House of the Dragon – the long-awaited and much- anticipated prequel to Game of Thrones . Plus Doctor Who and Torchwood director Colin Teague discusses his team-up with Tony Jordan for Saudi-backed thriller The Devil’s Promise . Of course, for any project to have a chance of success, it needs support from the outset – but not every great idea gets commissioned or funded. We find out about numerous success stories from both established and new entrants who bypassed broadcasters and studios to realise their visions by themselves. Last, but by no means least, attentions turn to Barcelona for juggernaut AV event Integrated Systems Europe (ISE), which runs from 31 January to 3 February. The managing director of this key show explains what attendees can expect when they land in the Catalan capital at the end of the month. Enjoy the issue – and here’s to a prosperous 2023!
