    December 13, 2012 TF1 & Discovery Communications Continue Exclusive Negotiations The TF1 Board of Directors, meeting on December 12, 20012, gave Nonce Paolini authority to conntinue and finalise the exclusive negotiations with Discovery Communications, the world’s #1 non-fiction media company, as announced on November 13, 2012. These negotiations are aimed at forging a strategic alliance to create value in the numerous complementary activities of the two media companies, in three key areas: Develop the futture activities of Eurosport A relationship between Eurosport (the only pan-European sport channel) and Discovery Communications (whose channels are available to 1.8 billion subscribers in 217 countries), would unlock synergies and complementary capabilities, particularly at the European level, in content (sports programming, entertainment, documentaries, etc) and in development opportunities (geographical expansion, new product launches, digital rollout, etc). To this end, Discovery would take a 20% minority interest in the Eurosport group (Eurosport International and Eurosport France). The acquisition of the 20% interest would involve cash consideration of approximately €170 million ($221.6 million). Discovery also would have the possibility (via an option granted by TF1) of raising its interestt to 51% in two years’ time. If Discovery exercised its option, TF1 would have the abillity to exercise a put option over the remaining 49%, which potentially would increase Discovery’s ownership to 100%. Develop pay TV content in France The alliance also would aim to enhance the output of documentary, magazine and current afffaairs channels in order to offer French distributors a flagship range of theme channels built around the content and brand portfolios of the two groups.

  • A Hidden Culture Anne Wood on How Art Helps Young Children Develop
    Perspectives on the value of art and culture Children and the Arts: A Hidden Culture Anne Wood on how art helps young children develop READ ON Anne Wood Back Next 02 Anne Wood is one of the most influential figures in children’s television. Born in Spennymoor, County Durham, she grew up in the mining community of Tudhoe Colliery then began a career as a secondary school teacher. She was a leading voice for children’s literature before launching a career in broadcasting. In 1984, she formed Ragdoll Productions, known for such television series as Rosie & Jim, Tots TV, Brum, In the Night Garden, Twirlywoos – and Teletubbies. She is the founder of The Ragdoll Foundation (www.ragdollfoundation.org.uk), which aims to provide a space for alternative thinking, voices and practices, to seek new creative solutions and partners, and to collaborate and share knowledge. It is currently leading the Save Kids’ Content UK campaign (www.savekidscontent.org.uk), which has the particular objective of safeguarding the production of UK- originated television for children. As a cultural notion, childhood emerged in western society somewhere around the 1850s and lasted until somewhere around the 1950s when the cult of the teenager first made itself felt in the USA, and spread around the world. Now, in the 21st century, we hear children are ‘growing up too fast’ or that ‘childhood is lost’. It is not that children are biologically changing. Although many may be taller, more robust and have greater life expectancy than previous generations, essentially children are no different. They have the same need to explore life and navigate it successfully, which has always been central to humanity.

  • Independent Television Producers in England
    Negotiating Dependence: Independent Television Producers in England Karl Rawstrone A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of the West of England, Bristol for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Arts and Creative Industries, University of the West of England, Bristol November 2020 77,900 words. Abstract The thesis analyses the independent television production sector focusing on the role of the producer. At its centre are four in-depth case studies which investigate the practices and contexts of the independent television producer in four different production cultures. The sample consists of a small self-owned company, a medium- sized family-owned company, a broadcaster-owned company and an independent- corporate partnership. The thesis contextualises these case studies through a history of four critical conjunctures in which the concept of ‘independence’ was debated and shifted in meaning, allowing the term to be operationalised to different ends. It gives particular attention to the birth of Channel 4 in 1982 and the subsequent rapid growth of an independent ‘sector’. Throughout, the thesis explores the tensions between the political, economic and social aims of independent television production and how these impact on the role of the producer. The thesis employs an empirical methodology to investigate the independent television producer’s role. It uses qualitative data, principally original interviews with both employers and employees in the four companies, to provide a nuanced and detailed analysis of the complexities of the producer’s role. Rather than independence, the thesis uses network analysis to argue that a television producer’s role is characterised by sets of negotiated dependencies, through which professional agency is exercised and professional identity constructed and performed.
