Cynopsis: International & Multicultural
Edition 1/10/07 Good Morning. It's Wednesday, January 10, 2007, and this is your first early morning International & Multicultural briefing. INTERNATIONAL MARKET: MTV and Bunim-Murray Productions are heading into the 19th season of The Real World by heading down under. Production will begin in Sydney, Australia this quarter with the premiere of the new 24-episode season scheduled for 4Q2007. Spain's Imagina Media Audiovisual is launching a new global sales company that will make its first appearance at next week's NATPE. Imagina International Sales (IIS) will be headed up by Jose Huertas as GM and Geraldine Gonard as Commercial Director. The new IIS holds a 3,000+ hour content catalog, which mainly includes television shows but also has features and documentaries, according to Variety. From the start, it will handle Globomedia formats such as The Serranos, Family Doctor, and A Step Forward in addition to affiliated Spanish production companies such as Mediapro, Drive Entertainment, Zip Films, Rodar & Rodar, Iskra, and DG Prods. Granada International has sold its new television drama Dracula to Pro TV in Romania. Pro TV has acquired the 1x90 dramatization of Bram Stoker's horror story which will air in Romania early in 2007. The show was originally part of BBC One's Christmas Schedule. In continuation to its original announcement in 2006, DIRECTV has announced the launch timeframe for Championship Gaming Series, a new global video gaming league, this spring. Available for broadcast in more than 100 million households around the globe, the league will also air in the U.S. on DIRECTV's The 101. The Series will expand to include North American, Latin American, U.K., European, Middle Eastern, Asian and Australian teams battling for more than $1 million in prizes. Final talks are underway between DIRECTV and British Sky Broadcasting (BSkyB) and STAR Asia to broadcast the Series in addition to partnerships with Fox Interactive Media's IGN Entertainment for online coverage. In addition to an international expansion beyond the U.S. game reach, the Series will also offer team members the chance to be drafted by franchises and paid salaries as full-time pro gamers. Buena Vista Worldwide Home Entertainment upped the ante with its most extensive Blu-ray Disc slate yet for release throughout 2007 starting this March in North America, Europe and Asia. In North America, BVWHE will release titles such as Chicken Little, King Arthur Director's Cut, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, and many others. In Europe, titles to be released will be Eight Below, Chicken Little, Enemy of the State, Flightplan, to name a few. In Asia, titles will include Face/Off, The Wild, Scary Movie 4, and others. Did you know? With the turning of the clock to a new year, French supermarkets, department stores, and various other merchants saw a turn of luck. Up until the end of 2006, the retailers were mainly banned from television advertising under the most restrictive marketing regulations in Europe. The ban was initially implemented to offer protection for smaller retailers against the money clout in advertising of the larger chains as well as to protect ad revenue for local French newspapers. The European Commission actually ruled that France needed to drop the retailer ban on TV, although the ban on television advertising of movies still exists for the time being. For the past 2 years, retails ads have been phased in first on niche cable, satellite and digital networks. As of January 1, 2007, mainstream broadcasters were permitted to air the retailers' ads. However, there are still some restrictions on these ads with retailers barred from mentioning sales or product prices. What was the reaction as of the New Year? A quarter of all ads on the top national channels on New Year's Day were retailers. HISPANIC MARKET: TeleFutura delivered its highest quarter ever in the history of the network with 4Q2006 audience levels among Hispanic A18-49 in Primetime (467,000) and Late Fringe (211,000). In 4Q2006 vs. 4Q2005, TeleFutura reported double digit growth for A18-49 for primetime (Mon-Sun, 7-11p) with +44% and total day (Mon-Sun 7a-2a) with +23%, according to Nielsen Media Research's NHTI ratings. Some of the highlights of the quarter include Confesiones De Un Rey: Vicente Fernández (Confessions of a King: Vicente Fernández)becoming the highest-rated entertainment special ever for the network among Hispanic A18-34 and A18-49 with 1.5 million viewers. Escandalo de Ano Nuevo (Scandalous New Year) delivered over half a million viewers, and became the second highest rated telecast for the program amongHispanic Persons 2+ and Hispanic A18-49. AFRICAN AMERICAN MARKET: Nickelodeon is partnering with BET in an agreement for BET to air two of Nickelodeon's live action series, the new Just Jordan and the year-old Romeo!. Just Jordan, which premiered on Nickelodeon on January 7, will debut on BET on January 13 at 10a, followed by Romeo! at 1130a. As part of the two networks' deal, the Just Jordan season one episodes will premiere first on Nickelodeon followed by BET one week later while Romeo!'s three seasons will air on Saturdays. In celebration of Black History Month, PBS will air programs exploring African American history. Here are the February shows…
ASIAN/INDIAN NETWORK: Marketing intelligence companies MarketResearch.com and Entertainment Asia Network (EAN) have teamed up to bring the latter's content to MarketResearch.com. EAN's reports on content from Asian TV, movies, animation, games, music, mobile, and internet markets. Its two most recently published two reports are "Motion Picture Industry in China: A Mirage on the Verge of Realization" and "An In-depth Look at the China Online Game Market: The Industry, the Games, the Country." EXECUTIVE MOVES: Discovery Networks International named Phillip Luff as SVP and GM of Animal Planet International, effective January 29. He will lead the global Animal Planet team from London, managing all aspects of the network, with a specific focus on commercializing Animal Planet internationally. Phillip has been working as VP and GM for Discovery in Japan. He will now report to Rebecca Batties, EVP/Creative Development and Brand Management for Discovery Networks International. Another Discovery move…Discovery Networks Group picked Tom Cosgrove as SVP/Programming for Discovery Channel, Discovery Times Channel, the Science Channel and Military Channel. He will be responsible for programming initiatives covering both linear and new media platforms in addition to operational and P&L planning, business development and global projects. Tom was recently GM at TV Guide Channel. Answer to yesterday's trivia question: What actor currently on Desperate Housewives, once played a role in a 1992 film opposite Rebecca De Mornay?
