Telefilm
TV movie (in Quebec, it is referred to the issue, serial television series, or in a conventional manner, serial or soap opera) is a branch of audiovisual production designed specifically for broadcast television. Produced by television studios and not by the movie studios , the TV movie has a duration exceeding one hour. It tells a complete story and is sufficient to itself, as opposed to the miniseries or TV series that are aired in several parts or episodes.
The films are generally shot on video - now digital - although some films were shot on photosensitive film classic. The broadcast format is most commonly that of the television screen, ie 1.33:1 (which corresponds to the screens 4 / 3) and 16 / 9.
For some films, have been implemented colossal resources, both financial and material resources, they are real blockbusters, often co-produced by several countries. We can not always consider the films as secondary works, as regards the means.
