VICE Media Group Renews Partnership with SBS Australia VICE Media Group renews partnership with SBS Australia London/Sydney. Tuesday 15th December 2020. VICE Media Group has announced the ​ continuation of its partnership with Australian broadcaster, SBS, with a renewed content deal for its SBS Viceland TV channel, and SBS digital platforms. The agreement includes more than 1,000 hours of VICE Media Group content available to Australians through SBS, with exclusive access to more than 600 hours of new, original programming, including VICE TV documentary features and series, as well as content from the new VICE World News strand and original productions from VICE Studios. Announcing the deal, Kate Ward, President of VICE Studios, said: “We are thrilled to be ​ continuing our landmark partnership with SBS in Australia. In SBS we have a partner who shares our deep commitment to storytelling through premium programming that resonates with this powerful generation of young people.” Adding: “This multi-year commitment is testament to the strength and depth of VICE’s ​ creative programming across factual, lifestyle, documentary, investigative journalism and current affairs which, alongside the world-renowned VICE brand, attracts and retains youth audiences in Australia.” The deal extends an already successful partnership between VICE and SBS which began in 2016 with the launch of SBS Viceland, a free-to-air television channel bringing Australians a unique and curated mix of VICE programming alongside other SBS content. Peter Andrews, Head of Network Programming, SBS, said: “SBS Viceland plays a ​ ​ ​ special role in our network celebrating diversity, exposing people to new cultures and ideas, and helping us all to better understand the world around us. We’re excited to be continuing to offer Australians compelling, boundary-pushing stories, spanning culture and current affairs, through our content partnership with Vice, and are looking forward to bringing local audiences an impressive line-up of new and exclusive Vice programming.” Titles for upcoming premiere on SBS Viceland include: From Vice TV: the third season of the ratings-winning pro wrestling documentary series Dark ​ Side of the Ring alongside the newly announced expansion of the franchise, Dark Side of ​ The 90s, which will explore the decade’s most captivating pop-culture moments. Also airing soon on SBS Viceland will be the explosive series While The Rest of Us Die which ​ unmasks how the elite are saved and normal people die when catastrophe strikes, documentary strand VICE VERSA, a new series of independent documentary specials that ​ ​ serve as a hub for compelling storytelling that challenges the status quo, as well as the hotly anticipated third season of Hamilton’s Pharmacopeia. ​ From VICE World News (VWN): programming includes the investigative documentary ​ series Wet Markets Exposed, which looks at the underbelly of wildlife wet markets across ​ the globe, and Fringe Nation, a new series which explores whether the actions of those at ​ ​ the fringes have a disproportionate - and irreversible - impact on the United States. In addition, the acclaimed feature documentary Mayor from Emmy-winning director, editor ​ and composer David Osit, will be available exclusively on SBS Viceland as part of VWN’s The Short List with Suroosh Alvi, a collection of the world’s best documentaries curated ​ by VICE founder Suroosh Alvi. VICE Studios’ new upcoming three-part production for Channel 5, Jack the Ripper: Hidden ​ Victims (w/t), which provides a new take on historical crime documentaries and debunks the ​ myths and mistruths around the infamous murderer Jack the Ripper, will also premiere in Australia on SBS Viceland. VICE Studios launched a new Distribution group earlier this year with a catalogue of over 1000 hours of premium VICE content that includes VICE News Tonight, the most Emmy ​ ​ Nominated show in 2020, VICE TV’s highest rating show Dark Side of the Ring, which has ​ ​ recently been renewed for a third season, as well as popular titles like Hate Thy Neighbour ​ with Jamali Maddix and Karley Sciortino’s Slutever. The ever expanding catalogue also ​ ​ includes hundreds of hours of new content every year such as the new documentary strand VICE VERSA, the epic drag racing show Donkmaster and the returning hit series Black ​ ​ ​ Market with Michael K. Williams. ​ ​ The deal with SBS underpins VICE’s continued growth and success in the wider Asia Pacific region which has seen multi-platform audience growth of over 200 percent and a ​ slew of award wins which includes a number of accolades from the Society of Publishers in Asia and the Kyoorius Awards in India as well as most recently, the award for Best Current Affairs Programme or Series at the 2020 Asian Academy Creative Awards for our documentary Man Woman #MeToo (Discovery Channel India).

  • Ohad Benchetrit - Justin Small
    Ohad Benchetrit - Justin Small A bit about us, Ohad Benchetrit & Justin Small: As founding members of critically acclaimed Toronto based band Do Make Say Think, we have been creating engaging, epic, and emotional music together for over 23 years. As composers, our focus has always centered around melody, artistic integrity, passion, and spirited experimentation. This has opened the door to a decades long career in film composition. We’ve always picked projects with lots of heart and beauty and believe score to be an integral part of the story telling. To add color, and emotion but not to lead. To add feel but not to persuade. We’ve been honored with multiple awards, including the 2018 JUNO award for best instrumental album with our work with Do Make Say Think, the Best Original Score in 2016 at the LA scream Fest and a Canadian Screen Award in 2012 for Best original score for a documentary for Semi-Sweet: Life in Chocolate We pride ourselves on finding the right emotional tone that both the director and picture are trying to convey. With Ohad's classical training and Justin's minimalist and immediate sense of melody we feel we have created a unique sound and style of film composition that holds the emotional crux of the entire project in the highest order. We love what we do.

  • The Growing Relationship Between Brands and the Entertainment World Is a Big Theme Once Again at Cannes
    The growing relationship between brands and the entertainment world is a big theme once again at Cannes. The debate is focused on several growing issues for brands in this space – including the integration of social media and device technology at live events, built through partnerships with the likes of Snapchat and Twitter, and the distribution of branded entertainment through deals with big media companies. Undoubtedly the biggest issue, however, is the need for brands to adapt to a changing world where they are part of a larger entertainment ecosystem. This requires some brave thinking about their brand and its role, together with the ability to connect with and, ultimately, move people in some way. This concern emerged during the Lions Entertainment session ‘What’s Next in the World of Brands and Entertainment?” The point made most forcibly by Jonny Sabbath, of Anheusher- Busch InBev. He stressed the need for those in the brand world to “think like a marketer, act like a producer. As marketers we have to act more like entertainment producers, do less interrupting and more attracting.” Sabbath raised what for me should be a significant focus for brands: bringing something that’s unique, entertaining, or useful to your audience. He cited one of his own projects, the Beerland show on Vice Media’s Viceland that follows craft brewer Meg Gill on a journey to meet home-brewers, to make his point that brands are now engaging with audiences by buying or creating TV shows and then developing their advertising around this entertainment. This requires a different approach for brands, putting themselves more in the role of producer and asking whether people will want to actively engage with the content and whether the product or service has the permission to have a conversation with people at that time, and in that space.
