MYANMAR – The junta regime’s Motion Picture Organisation announced on July 21 that Myanmar drama series will have to submit the synopsis and episodes to the censor board before the filming begins, starting August 1.
Myanmar drama series produced by television businesses and producers will be required to get permission.
“Previously, only movies needed to be submitted. But now drama series will also need to be submitted. Short series and videos still don’t need to be submitted,” said an official from a movie production studio.
Currently in Myanmar, more television series are being filmed and the business has started to turn a good profit.
The directors of television series will now be required to get permission for the synopsis before the filming starts and will also have to make adjustments if ordered by the censor board.
The Myanmar Motion Picture Organisation’s announcement also mentioned that the series that started filming before submitting to the censor board will not be eligible for submission.
A member of the Myanmar Motion Picture Organisation was contacted for comment on the announcement but did not give a reply.
