It's Friday, January 26, 2007, and this is your first early morning International & Multicultural briefing. INTERNATIONAL MARKET: Sony Pictures Television International is continuing to expand its original productions by signing an extensive format development and series production agreement with reality production house Base Camp Films. Base Camp principals Brady Connell and Jim Jusko will exec produce projects developed under the deal and adapt formats developed or acquired overseas by SPTI for sale in the U.S. The first format in active development is Base Camp's Six Degrees of X. Developed to be scalable for global, regional or local production, Six Degrees of X tests the theory that all people are somehow connected by only six degrees of separation. Second in line is a cross-platform interactive 'crimesolving' project known as MyCrime. To be produced with Base Camp for SPTI's international channels and networked with internet and wireless devices, MyCrime is set for global launch in mid 2007. TV-Loonland has inked several new deals for its multi-platform CGI animated short-form series The Owl (52x1). Picking up the series are Swedish broadcaster SVT, South African pay-TV operator M-Net, and Thailand's UBC subsidiary Cineplex Company. A non-verbal humor-based series, The Owl follows the unending mishaps of a pink owl. The short-form series debuted last month in France on France 3. The Owl is created and directed by Alexandre So, and is a co-production of TV-Loonland, Studio Hari and France 3 network. New episodes of 4Kids Entertainment's animated series Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Fast Forward has been acquired by ITV Network (UK), RTVE (Spain) and Media Set (Italy) among others. ITV (UK) has acquired rights to both ITV and CiTV, with RTVE (Spain) picking up all 130 episodes of the series. These new licensee join recent deals for the TMNT series which include pacts with SIC (Portugal), Ten Network (Australia), Cartoon Network (Australia & NZ), DR TV (Denmark), and Mediacorp TV12's Kid Central (Singapore) among others. CROSS-MARKET: A special preview screening of the new PBS documentary HIP-HOP: Beyond Beats and Rhymes will take place on January 30. The program is set to air through PBS' Independent Lens series on February 20. The preview will center on discussing issues raised in the film such as limited perceptions of masculinity and ties to a culture of violence, media and music industries possible influence, and more. On hand for the discussion about the film will be rapper Talib Kweli, BET's VP/News and Public Affairs, Keith Brown, recording artist Black Thought of The Roots, HIP-HOP: Beyond Beats and Rhymes filmmaker Byron Hurt, and others.

HISPANIC MARKET: Director/writer/actor Damian Chapa and Laguna Productions co-produced theatrical piece Mexican American, which will be released on DVD on Cinco de Mayo, May 5. It is the tale of a famous boxer, who after loosing his wife, falls into depression and becomes an alcoholic. It is only when his daughter is kidnapped by an Aryan based terrorist group in Mexico that he is able to recapture his life to save his daughter. Damian and Laguna also announced plans to begin production on a new Latino-targeted feature titled El Chicano starring Jack Scalia, Joanna Pacula and Chapa. It is about a man who honors his grandmother's wish to become a professor and not enter the legal profession, only to be drawn in after his district attorney wife is brutally murdered. Discovery Networks U.S. Hispanic Group's Discovery en Espanol had quite a bit of primetime (7-11p) ratings growth. According to the Nielsen's NHTI/NHHI ratings, Discovery en Español increased its viewership from 2005 to 2006 by 78% among M18-49 (from 0.09 to 0.16) and 50% among A18-49 (from 0.08 to 0.12).

GAY/LESBIAN MARKET: The buying power of gays and lesbians is expected to exceed $835 billion by 2011, according to The Gay and Lesbian Market in the U.S., a new report from market research firm Packaged Facts, in collaboration with gay/lesbian PR and marketing firm Witeck-Combs Communications Inc. This year's report pegs the 2006 buying power of gays and lesbians at $660 billion, an amount that will increase significantly as the gay and lesbian population, estimated at 15.3 million, grows to a projected 16.3 million in 2011.

EXECUTIVE MOVES: MTV Networks' Angel Gambino, VP/Commercial Strategy and Digital Media in the U.K., is leaving the company following a restructure. She came on board with MTV only 16 months ago from her previous position controller/business development and emerging platforms at the BBC. No word yet on what her next move will be. BBC has named Clare Pizey as Creative Director/Features and Formats Studio. She enters this newly created position from her position as Controller/Features at Granada. Ellis Entertainment picked Sean Connolly to serve as Development Director/Ellis Vision and VisionTV International. He previously worked with EPI, Proper Television and Red Apple in Canada.

The new structure will see Ian Dowds upped to Sales Controller, taking direct responsibility for the day to day running of the Ad Sales Department and reporting into Simon Cox. Jennifer Burgos, Director/Sponsorship & Promotions, and Karl Anderssen, Director/Sales Operations, will continue to run their respective teams and will both report directly into Simon Cox.
