About Us
Ay Yapim is one of Turkey's leading production companies, producing drama series, formats, weekly and daily shows.
Each season Ay Yapim produces an average of 150 episodes of prime time drama, most of which are the highest rating shows of the day they are broadcast. Internationally, Ay Yapim's productions are at the forefront of the so-called 'Turkish Wave' of programming, breaking new markets for Turkish drama and formats.
Recent shows include the global phenomenon 'Ezel' which has sold as a ready made in over 45 countries and been reworked in multiple scripted format deals, including Russia and Latin America - where Televisa have bought the scripts to adapt in versions throughout the region. The thriller series 'Son' is finding new audiences for Turkish drama in Western and Northern Europe, currently transmitting with subtitles on Sweden's public broadcaster and delivering ratings much higher than average for the slot. Several changed format deals are pending. Current hit of the season Karadayi is closing a raft of deals brokered at Dubai's My Content and NATPE markets and looks set to deliver a record per-episode price for Turkish drama. All three shows are distributed world wide by Eccho Rights.
Previous catalogue deals are also coming to fruition now, for example Telemondo's new hit show 'Pasion Prohibida' is a remake of Ay Yapim's domestic success 'Forbidden Love'.
