24 Feb 2022Episode 91 - TV Format Theft Dispute Special00:50:27

Sign up to the free TellyCast newsletter

This week’s show is a slightly different kind of TellyCast, looking into a subject that’s often on the lips of TV producers and format creators - IP and TV format theft.

We wanted to find out if this really is a common issue in the UK industry, what happens in these kind of disputes, how they arise, the impact on the producer - and what can be done about it in the future.

So Boom! PR's Justin Crosby caught up with leading IP lawyer Jonathan Coad, PACT CEO John McVay, the TV presenter and format creator at the centre of a current dispute Tim Shaw and three leading independent TV producers who are appearing anonymously.

Sign up to the free TellyCast newsletter

Since the Russian invasion 2 weeks ago it seems inappropriate to just carry on the show as usual without fully acknowledging the world changing events happening in Eastern Europe right now and how they’re affecting the people in our industry.

So this week’s show is just one interview. One discussion with Film UA's Kateryna Vyshnevska, a  TV executive who’s caught up right in the middle of this catastrophe. She's in Kyiv right now and we recorded this discussion on Sunday 6th March. In conversation with Boom! PR's Justin Crosby.

We’re doing something slightly different for TellyCast this week - and that’s focusing on the animation sector of the content industry, from MIFA - one the industry’s showcase events, set on the shores of Lake Annecy in France.

Even if you aren’t in the animation game, I’d still recommend having a listen to this week’s show, where I get to chat to some of the industry’s key players on sector trends and the importance of MIFA for the animation industry. There’s lots of parallels and perhaps some insights to take for the rest of the content industry.

Guests are Michael Rose and Martin Pope from Magic Light Pictures, David Park and Debbie Crosscup from Passion Pictures and industry veteran Marge Dean, Emmy-award winning Head of Skybound Entertainments' Animation Studio and President of Women in Animation.

This week's show features Lee McMurray, commissioning editor of Factual Entertainment at Channel 4 in conversation with Boom! PR's Justin Crosby.

As a series producer and exec, Lee launched successful returning series on Channel 4, such as Secret Eaters and What Happens in Kavos. He was also responsible for a range of other popular factual shows, including The Naked Choir with Gareth Malone on BBC2 and the Grierson-nominated Life is Toff for BBC3, which brought the Fulford family back to our screens. Other SP and producer credits straddle the popular factual genre, comprising everything from Loose Women, to Castaway, to Bizarre E.R.

After joining Channel 4 as a commissioning editor in formats in 2017, Lee moved across to the factual entertainment department during Ian Katz’s restructure of the commissioning teams. He has overseen continuing brands such as Made in Chelsea on e4, as well as launching The Sex Clinic on the youth-oriented channel. For Channel 4, he currently looks after Married at First Sight, which will be coming back for a creatively refreshed fifth series. His original commissions include Famous & Fighting Crime, Celebrity Call Centre, Charlotte Church: My Family & Me, The Posh Frock Shop, It’s Grime Up North and A Very British Sex Shop.

Welcome to TellyCast Talks - the first in a new strand of interviews on TellyCast - featuring the media business leaders shaping tomorrow's content industry

On TellyCast Talks, we’ll delve into the minds of only the most senior C- suite executives. These conversations are less focused on the corporate strategy of their organisations and more about the person behind the big decisions. We’ll ask why they took the decisions they have over the course of their career, the experiences that have shaped them and aim to reveal the qualities of a successful leader.

Kicking off the series is Cathy Payne, CEO of Banijay Rights, the distribution arm of the global production juggernaut.

18 Apr 2024YouTube for TV Producers with Little Dot Studios' James Loveridge | TellyCast Podcast00:36:32

Subscribe to the TellyCast YouTube channel for exclusive TV industry videos

Over the next few weeks we’re going to be exploring the world of YouTube for TV producers with our friends at Little Dot Studios. 

The current commissioning slowdown has highlighted how exposed producers can become to global economic headwinds. When the networks and streamers stop buying, it can leave many indies high and dry.

So perhaps now is the time to properly consider building a different kind of indie. One where building your own IP through podcasts, YouTube and other social networks are the keys to a more sustainable future.

This week we discuss the practicalities and opportunities on YouTube with James Loveridge, Managing Director of Entertainment at Little Dot Studios.
