Company Overview

Founded by Konstantin Mankovskiy in 2016, Black Box Production has quickly established itself as a key player in the Russian television industry. Specializing in comedy and dramedy series, our company is dedicated to producing engaging and high-quality content that resonates with diverse audiences.

Our Expertise

Since our inception, we have successfully created multiple prime-time television projects, amassing over 100 hours (8 titles with multiple seasons) of broadcast time on leading Russian networks. Our productions are known for their creativity, strong storytelling, and ability to capture viewers’ attention.

Global Reach and Vision

Looking ahead, Black Box Production is actively developing more than 10 new projects for both traditional television channels and popular internet platforms. We are committed to bringing fresh, impactful stories to both Russian and global audiences, continuously expanding our reach and influence in the entertainment industry.

Social Impact

In recent years, Black Box Production has focused on creating socially impactful content. In 2022-2023, a social campaign developed by Konstantin Mankovskiy in collaboration with a charitable foundation was integrated into the Aunt Marta series. This campaign raised awareness about issues facing orphans and children without families, leading to over 40 children finding new homes.

Black Box Production also supports young filmmakers; the company’s producers regularly participate as experts in pitching sessions for independent films and emerging screenwriters and directors. The company has established several awards at regional film festivals. With the company’s support, an independent short film, Aykuo, was produced by an up-and-coming Yakut director.

Looking Ahead

As we continue to grow, Black Box Production remains committed to innovation and excellence in every project. We are excited to explore new creative opportunities and partnerships that will shape the future of entertainment, both within Russia and on the global stage.
