R.I.P. Conventional TV (FTV07)
Some claim that the traditional model for creating content, financing production and broadcast dissemination may never be the same. For producers, this begs the questions: what type of content will live and die in the next era of broadcast platforms? Will there be new streams of revenue to replace the dried-up markets – and if so, how soon? Will online “broadcasting” afford opportunities for a greater diversity of shows to find audiences, and vice versa? Hear from trendsetters, stakeholders, content creators and innovators about what will be coming down the pipeline.
