MediaPro Pictures is Romania’s leading producer of entertainment, founded in 1998. Their activity focuses on television and film production. At the same time, they have a division specialized in organizing events, L!VE, and one that handles commercials and music videos – Domino Productions.
In 2007 they opened MediaPro Pictures s.r.o., their first offshore subsidiary, located in the Czech Republic.
In 2008, in order to keep up with the increasing volume of productions, two new divisions were created. They are specialized in complementary types of content for television: MediaPro Television (drama, comedy and action) and Promance International (romantic fiction).
MediaPro Pictures is part of the MediaPro Group, the largest media consortium in Romania. They are based in the town of Buftea, on the premises of the largest complex of film studios in Eastern Europe, MediaPro Studios.
Over the years MediaPro Pictures has managed to release both productions for mass audiences (such as “Garcea, the Dumbest Cop on Earth”, 2001) and productions intended to appeal to a more exclusive public – like the high-profile drama “California Dreamin’ (Endless)”, which was awarded the prize “Un Certain Regard” at the Cannes Film Festival in 2007.
