Meet our Seriencamp Story Exchange Award winners of 2023.

Story Exchange Awards

The SERIENCAMP STORY EXCHANGE is a platform for TV series creators to present their series concepts to an audience of industry experts. The projects selected by our advisory boards compete in three categories: Writers' Vision Pitch, CO-PRODUCTION PITCH and DOCU-SERIES PITCH for our STORY EXCHANGE AWARDS. We have had three inspiring days of Seriencamp Conference and got the chance to listen to all of those great visionaries that pitched in our Seriencamp Story Exchange Sessions. And here are the winners of our Story Exchange awards, sponsored by our amazing partners.
