Sky Studios CEO Gary Davey: What We’ve Learned From Week One of Post-Pandemic Production (Exclusive)
Sky Studios, which develops, produces and funds original drama, comedy and documentary for Comcast-backed Sky’s 24 million pay-tv subscribers, returned to production on two shows this week – “Ich und die Anderen” in Austria and “Sisterhood” in Iceland. In a guest column written exclusively for Variety, Gary Davey, CEO of Sky Studios, shares learnings from the first week back in production, including tips from the production team on the ground.
A year ago today, we launched Sky Studios. If you’d told me then that 12 months later, a global pandemic would have disrupted the everyday lives of people across the globe, causing tragic deaths, social isolation and economic uncertainty, I would have told you to walk down the hall and speak to our development team in drama. It sounds like a fantasy, but sadly, few people in the world have been unaffected by the devastating impact of Covid-19 over these past few months.
