Telemundo Launches Spanish-Language Streaming Studio To Meet Growing Demand

Looking to capitalize on the enormous appetite for Spanish-language programming, Telemundo is opening a new studio dedicated to producing content for streaming platforms.

Telemundo Streaming Studios, based in Miami, launched Wednesday with 35 projects in development, including “Armas de Mujer,” a remake of “El Diario de un Gigolo” and the fourth and fifth seasons of “El Marginal,” which has been popular on Netflix.

The company said the venture is the first major Spanish-language production house that will create shows specifically for streaming services.

The initiative comes as U.S. media giants, including Telemundo’s parent company, NBCUniversal, are looking to bolster their offerings in a more competitive Spanish-language video market — one that demands higher production values than were the norm for the telenovelas that have run on TV.

The studio will be part of the existing Telemundo Global Studios, which is led by Marcos Santana.

The veteran programmer will continue to oversee original scripted programs for the Telemundo TV network and international co-productions but the company is expected to bring in additional staff to handle the streaming productions.

The new venture is a response to the growing demand for streaming content, said Beau Ferrari, chairman of NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises.

“We are the No. 1 Spanish-language content producers in the U.S.,” Ferrari said in an interview. “And we, at Telemundo, have been providing content for the streamers for a decade now. We’ve been looking at what content was working for the streamers, and we wanted to take advantage of the traction that we already have.”

For example, Telemundo produced “Jenni Rivera: Mariposa de Barrio,” about the life of the beloved Mexican banda singer, a native of Long Beach who died in a 2012 plane crash. It became one of Netflix’s most popular shows.

Telemundo also produced “El Marginal,” for Netflix, a series about an ex-cop who is sent to infiltrate a prison to investigate a kidnapping while shielding his true identity.

Since 2011, Telemundo has produced more than 10,000 hours of programming for Netflix, Hulu, HBO and Movistar and other streaming outlets.

Spanish-language broadcasters have seen audiences wane for the traditional telenovelas, which are shot within three walls in studio soundstages and revolve around love stories.

Younger Latinos are accustomed to the higher production values and grittier story lines of the shows they watch on Netflix. The streaming shows are more expensive productions, requiring bigger stars and more locations.

The new venture comes one year after NBCUniversal launched its own streaming service, Peacock. The broadcast giant, owned by Philadelphia cable company Comcast, has found Spanish-language programming to be a major draw on its streaming platform. Part of the mandate for the new studio is to help feed Peacock, to make that service more appealing to Spanish-speaking Latinos.

“We are looking to ramp up Peacock — and Peacock Latino,” Ferrari said.

In the last year, Telemundo has produced 3,000 hours of programming for Peacock Latino.

Nearly $1 billion is spent annually on Spanish-language content for streaming services, according to industry estimates. Netflix alone is expected to spend about half that amount. WarnerMedia’s HBO Max and Amazon Prime also have been increasing their spending, as has NBCUniversal to bolster Peacock.

Ferrari pointed to research that shows Latinos are among the largest consumers of streaming content.

In addition to producing its shows for Peacock, Netflix and others, Telemundo will carve out a side business by offering production services to third-party creators who are looking for studio space and the expertise of studio executives who are based in Miami.

The Spanish-language market is becoming more competitive. Last month, Telemundo’s arch rival, Univision Communications, announced that it would merge with the entertainment assets of one of the world’s largest creators of Spanish-language programming, Grupo Televisa of Mexico City.

Search-engine behemoth Google is one of the investors in the soon-to-be merged entity. Univision already has been moving aggressively into the streaming space with the March launch of its own Spanish-language streaming service called PrendeTV.

Last month, ViacomCBS — which recently launched the Paramount+ streaming service — said it would buy WarnerMedia’s Chilevisión, including its Spanish-language production facilities and content library.

“Telemundo is doing something where they have production capacity and real estate,” said Julio Rumbaut, a Spanish-language media consultant, based in Miami. “The content world is changing so fast, including the Spanish-language content, so this may be a way for them to prepare to enter the streaming market in a compelling manner.”

During the Universal Kids era aka DreamWorks Channel USA, the channel catered towards children aged 2-12 with a mix of live-action and animated series.

Two years after its launch, the channel witnessed a massive drop in viewership resulting in the halt of production on original content for the brand.

The last remaining animation for the brand were Norman Picklestripes, Powerbirds, DreamWorks' Where's Waldo, Remy And Boo and The Ollie And Moon Show.

SABC Children: Another Dream Journal For The SABC

Creators of top children's entertainment for SABC's TV channels, SABC Children was another one of SABC's upcoming channels for DTT back in 2012 which never came to be.

In 2015, SABC partnered up with Tuluntulu launched an online version of the brand from there viewers got to see what the channel was actually about and what it would offer.

SABC Children would have been multilingual like Kenya's Akilli Kids and cater towards children aged 2-12 offering a mix of local and international content making it one of the few SABC channels to offer foreign programming.

The programming would serve to entertain viewers but as mentioned earlier it would be available in different languages other than English. The schedule featured a large amount of local productions including The Magic Cellar, Roughing It Out, Challenge SOS, My Night and several YoTV productions.

Since this channel never came to be on DTT, SABC Education is currently distributing the local side of SABC Children knowing them they won't add the full catalogue only ones that hold educational value.

SABC Children joins the large list of dreams SABC had for DTT over the decade including SABC 4 and SABC 5, SABC Movies, 5 language based channels, parliamentary, health, music, history, SMME and interactive channel.

SABC launched their sport channel on OpenView with two additional channels set to follow in the coming months.

SUPER SCIENCE MONDAYS

BONE DETECTIVES
Brand New Episode - premieres 03 May at 20:00 CAT
An adventurous archaeologist journeys to the farthest reaches of the earth on a quest driven by the belief that the secrets of the past have yet to be revealed. Carefully preserved mummies and entombed skeletons are a link to ancient civilizations. Each presents a mystery to unravel, a life to understand, a world to explore and a death to reveal. But these long-hidden remains do not yield their secrets easily.

METEORITE MEN
Brand New Episodes - premieres 03 May at 22:00 CAT
For thousands of years meteorites have slammed into the Earth's surface, carrying an invaluable record of the origins of our solar system. But finding meteorites on Earth, some buried over centuries by thick layers of dirt and sediment, is no easy task.

Meteorite hunters Steve Arnold and Geoff Notkintravel to some of the most remote locations around the world to explore the scientific and financial value of meteorites. Featuring treks in Chile, Sweden, Australia, the US, Mexico, and more, these meteorite men meet with top scientists, geologists, astronomers, and meteorite experts to reveal a deeper understanding of how meteorites have helped to build our solar system and shape our planet.

WILDLIFE WEDNESDAYS

THE MAGIC OF THE WILD
Brand New Series premieres 05 May at 20:00 CAT
The "National Parks" series is dedicated to one jewel of the natural wonders of North America in each episode. For one year each, the filmmakers accompany the rangers and scientists who have dedicated themselves to the preservation and exploration of this unique nature in the US or Canada.
Since 1916, the American national parks -as well as most of the other sites and areas worthy of protection -have been managed by the National Park Service (NPS). The Service states "conservation, preservation and recreation" as its primary goals. Its task is more topical than ever.
The parks are threatened, especially by climate change: in Alaska, glaciers are melting, in Florida, protected species are being displaced by immigrant animals, and in California, rare rodents freeze to death because they are not sufficiently prepared for winter due to warmer temperatures.

MIGRATIONS: HERDS ON THE MOVE
Brand New Documentary Special - premieres 19 May at 20:00 CAT
Migration is one of the great phenomena of the natural world. When it’s time to move, some take to the skies or the oceans, but the migrants we know best are found in the awe-inspiring herds running across our planet.

EXTINCTION: GOING, GOING, GONE
