Fox pilot in Prague, Croatia

By

    Breaking a dry streak in the Czech Republic, Fox began filming the pilot for Masterwork in Prague on April 28.

    The series, produced by 20th Century Fox TV (www.fox.com) for Fox, was created and written by executive producer Paul Scheuring (creator of the series Prison Break)and is produced by Ed Milkovich. The three-week shoot of the action/adventure/worldwide treasure hunt series moves to Croatia on May 11.

    With Czechs suffering from the triple blow of a strong currency, lack of tax incentives (although industry speculation says that may be about to change), and powerful competition from other Central European states, locals are hoping for a series pick up with a commitment to film in Prague.
