Eduart Grishaj reveals details from the 3rd edition of Ferma Vip: It can be

Tomorrow, the third season of the long-awaited spectacle "Ferma VIP", directed by Arbana Osmani, starts on the Vizion Plus screen. This edition comes with a transformed environment and advanced technology, offering a new experience for the Albanian audience.

Director Eduart Grishaj stated that the residents' house is four times larger, with cameras covering their every step 24 hours a day.

He added that most of the contestants are known to the public, but many of them are entering a reality show for the first time.

One of the main changes is the environment: the house no longer resembles a traditional Albanian village, but is conceived as a modern village with a luxurious swimming pool.

The content of the show includes physical challenges, farm work, and various activities that will suit all residents.

This season's commentators will be Ermal Mamaqi, Einxhel Shkira and Armina Mevlani, while the production will offer 24-hour broadcasting and two shows per week, for a total of 100 days.

Grishaj said that coordinating 158 cameras and realizing every detail has been the biggest challenge, but promises an edition full of surprises and new dynamics for the audience.

"I believe this is the maximum that can be done. It is not only compared to our country, but to the entire region. Everything has changed: from the studio, the lighting to the cameras.

The house is four times larger and the number of cameras monitoring it 24 hours a day has multiplied.

I am very happy that producer Holta Dulaku has made my work like a "highway" from the beginning, allowing me to give my best.

The competitors are very good names that the public knows, but has never seen in the dimension of 24-hour surveillance.

The house no longer resembles a traditional Albanian village, but a modern village in Texas or Los Angeles. The duck pond has been replaced with a large luxurious swimming pool.

The farm philosophy will be a mix: from tilling the land and working in the stable, to physical challenges. There are very strong and unfit competitors, but the challenges will suit everyone.

The cameras are the latest ones used in the World Cup finals. They can also be used to film the Champions League. I wanted to inject a cinematic spirit into the program.

Ermal Mamaqi will bring humor, Einxhel Shkira will bring showbiz analysis, and Armina Mevlani will bring her experience.” As for the leading role: “'The main character will be Arbana from the studio.

The season will last 100 days, with 24-hour broadcasts and two shows per week," while on the first night "about 24 farmers will enter."

The biggest challenge for him as a director?

"The realization of every detail in record time," he said, also revealing behind the scenes: "Last night we were in the studio until 3 am," said Grishaj.

While for the first night, expectations are maximum:

“I will be directing 158 cameras from the cockpit with my team. We will have four directors in coordination,” said Grishaj, adding with humor: “We hope that the weather will also favor us… we hope that at 9:00 there will be a pause so that we can get the residents inside.”/ CNA
