SYNOPSIS
An anthology series that explores the lives of Swedish teens, along with their friends and family, as they navigate the ups and downs of growing up and facing life's challenges.
Challenges & Approach
This newly developed anthology series was created collaboratively with and for Swedish junior high school students. Each episode focuses on a different character, exploring diverse perspectives and themes relevant to youth. Due to a condensed pre-production schedule, it presented a significant challenge in establishing the show's format and workflow within a limited timeframe. As a producer, I prioritized casting and story development to ensure authenticity and emotional impact, given our smaller team and the constraints on technical resources. The project ultimately emphasized strong storytelling and character-driven narratives, leveraging the unique insights of young talent to create an engaging series.
The result
This is a newly conceived series with the potential for a longer run, thanks to its distinctive format and style. The series centers around a diverse group of strong characters, each facing their own unique challenges. Designed to be fast-paced, the show balances both serious and lighthearted themes, with a clear emphasis on educational content. Its engaging structure aims to resonate with viewers while providing meaningful insights and entertainment.
