      The company has also partnered with Turkish directors Durul Taylan and Yagmur Taylan, to develop scripted projects for Turkey, the Middle East and the United States.

      Ömer Özgüner

      US production company Karga Seven Pictures, owned by Red Arrow Studios, has announced the appointment of Ömer Özgüner as the CEO of their production outfit in Turkey, effective immediately. Ömer Özgüner is a veteran of the Turkish media industry, most recently running Star TV Turkey for the past six years.

      The company has also announced a new partnership with Turkish film and TV directors Durul Taylan and Yagmur Taylan, directors of international hit dramas including Muhtesem Yüzyil (Magnificent Century) and Vatanim Sensin (Wounded Love). Based in Karga Seven Pictures’ offices in Los Angeles, the Taylan brothers will develop scripted projects with Karga Seven Pictures for Turkey, the Middle East and the United States.

      After producing in Turkey for a number of years, including successful feature films Takim: Mahalle Askina! (The Team) and 40, Karga Seven Pictures launched their Turkish outfit last year, with productions including City of Secrets for Fox. Karga Seven Pictures Turkey is currently preparing their new slate with a new team, including Ömer Özgüner and drama coordinator Ümmü Burhan, with the aim of introducing a bold and international dimension to Turkish television. The company is also in the process of acquiring a number of internationally recognised series, with further details to follow shortly.

      Karga Seven Pictures celebrates its tenth anniversary in 2018, with a new Travel Channel series Mysteries and Myths with Megan Fox (wt), and new Tim Kennedy series Hard to Kill for Discovery Channel.

      Commenting on the new appointment, Emre Sahin, Founding Partner of Karga Seven Pictures, said: “We are delighted that Ömer Özgüner has joined us in Turkey to spearhead our Turkish production operations, and that we have forged an important new partnership with The Taylan brothers, two of the most successful film and TV directors working in Turkey today.

      “With Turkey being the second-largest exporter of television dramas in the world, and with our growing slate of new projects, it is great to have Ömer, Durul and Yagmur join us in this period of rapid growth. As we celebrate our tenth year in business, Sarah Wetherbee, Kelly McPherson and I would like to thank all of our teams in LA and Istanbul, and our network clients and distributors, for their support over the last decade.”

      Commenting on his appointment, Ömer Özgüner, CEO of Karga Seven Pictures Turkey, said: “I have been impressed with what Emre, Sarah, Kelly and their team have been doing in the US and Turkey over the last few years, and am happy to be joining them at this pivotal time. Karga is the only production company in Turkey that is aiming to grow via international partnerships. We want to produce rich, unique content for Turkish and international audiences, and have everything in place to achieve this, including a strong new team. Our financing strength and backing, and focus on original literary works and creative excellence, means that Karga is well placed to be a key player in the industry.”

      The Taylan brothers added: “We believe that partnerships such as this are vital to diversify content in the Turkish TV industry, which has made a giant leap in the last 10 years and established itself as one of the most prominent television industries in the world. We are firm believers that the best stories are the most universal ones, and it’s always been our biggest desire to bring to the screen the most technically and dramatically coherent examples of such stories. We were very impressed by Karga Seven’s vision, determination and perspective on the creative side, and we think our union with them will bring to life a wide variety of highly watchable projects.”
