Ukrtelefilm

The Ukrainian Television Film Studio, better known by its abbreviated name Ukrtelefilm, is a Ukrainian film studio founded in 1965. In 1959, the Council of Ministers of the Ukrainian SSR allocated a 4-hectare plot of land on the banks of the Rusanivsky Canal for the construction of a film complex with a car garage, a two-story administrative building with a film pavilion, a tonal studio, a large film screening room and a small (director's) film screening room, a film equipment shop, a sound shop, and a combined filming shop. The film complex included a state-of-the-art film development shop and a film negative and positive editing facility. A large apple orchard was also laid out on the territory of Ukrtelefilm studio.

In 1983, the USSR State Committee for Television and Radio built a new video complex with two large pavilions with stationary TV cameras and video recording and editing equipment, makeup and prop shops. The video complex housed the TJC department (a television journalism complex with a portable video camera).

According to the amendments to the Law of Ukraine "On Public Broadcasting" of May 2016, Ukrtelefilm is to be transformed into Ukrtelefilm PJSC and join UA:PBC (National Public Broadcasting Company of Ukraine). The transformation is to be carried out by the state enterprise manager, the State Committee for Television and Radio of Ukraine, starting in May 2016.^[1]
