1st Open Training Session - Discovery Campus Masterclass 2004

Commissioning Editors Pitch Their Slots

Target Group: Filmmakers, producers, distributors and commissioning editors.

Documentary Slots, Decision-Making Criteria and Programming Needs of International Broadcaster

Commissioning editors from European and North American broadcasters present their documentary slots and programming needs.

One of the most entertaining Discovery Campus events offering unique insights into what commissioning editors look for and how they "tick". See them pitch their slot in 7 minutes trying to attract producers with their new ideas! Special focus o­n the UK market.

Producers and filmmakers present at the Open Training Session (OTS) decide about the Discovery Campus Award for the best Slot Pitch.

Commissioning editors will give an insight into decision making processes inside their station. What are they looking for? How long does it take to make a commitment for a programme and why? How much risk can they take? And what are their limitations?

Are the programme schedulers the real decision makers inside the system? Does the weal and woe of a slot lie in their hands? Schedulers from public and private broadcasters will reveal some of their secrets.

Registration forms, the programme and further information will be available o­n our website at the end of January.
