“Aims - The Wintersun series aims
to present the district of Marina Alta
attractive to tourism. We want to
demonstrate, through a good story fiction, that we are much more
than sun and sand.
We support eight municipalities
(including those of the major tourist powers in the region: Denia,
Javea, Calpe and Teulada-Moraira) and companies like Beer
Damm. We also have the support
of Balearia, which allows us not
only to connect the Marina Alta
with the Balearic Islands in our
history, but also have its broadcast
networks and with their boats as
emission point of the series.
One point in favour of the project
is precisely this total involvement
of the public sector and private
with the series. Marina Alta has
decided to participate in it and for
us represents the opportunity to
demonstrate that cultural industries can support the productive
sector for our Region and become
a real support in creating opportunities. Applying a real branded
content strategy works for a company or placing a product for an
entire region. Wintersun - The title
refers to what happens outside of
the summer months. During July &
August Marina Alta receives almost two million tourists, mainly British and Spanish. But what
about the rest of the year? We are
ready to prove that the extraordinary still happens after September
15, when the last low cost plane
has departed and things resume
their usual pace.
Wintersun was recorded in Castilian, Valencian and English as one
of its objectives is to reach the British public. Our region is already a
prestigious international destination (43% of its 200,000 inhabitants are foreigners with a preponderance of British), but we / you
can still do more and, above all, to
do better. The cast includes experience actors from the world of
television, theatre and film - well
known to the Valencian public. The
technical team of more than 30
people, has brought together top
professionals and teams. From the
district of Marina Alta more than
200 people were involved in the
production, including extras and
volunteers.
At the moment the team has recorded a first season of 5 episodes
that will air on
www.soldeinvierno.net and
www.thewintersun.co.uk
as well as channels of Youtube
and Vimeo and Social media
Already tsteps have been taken to
secure funding to record another
Wintersun season. We believe
that our goals are only feasible if
the project is kept fresh.
