A Journey to New Formats on Public TV
Creativity has become the magic word in the world of TV making. But has Public Service Broadcasting really lost the battle, leaving the field of creativity to its commercial rivals and the Internet? Let’s go on a global journey and find out.
Session leader: Rainer Traube
Presenter: Dr. Bettina Brinkmann
At a time when elimination and casting formats show obvious signs of tiring, BBCs The Speaker or DR’s Min Funky Familie respectively try to keep the spirit.
Entertainment meets reality in RAI’s Il Recuperatore and EEN’s Tomtesterom. But is the mission accomplished?
Old formats come up with new concepts, like KBS dynamic Two Days and One Night or CANVAS’ surprising Weg met de Soete – travel shows revisited. And in 24 UTC ARTE experiments with a sophisticated night format.
Finally there is a desperate need to make sense of the Internet. DW-TV stepped into new ground with Clipmania and SVT with an Open Newsroom. Can we successfully translate the web into new formats?
In cooperation with EBU’s Eurovision Creative Forum we will discuss recent format innovations in public service programming, including some of those ranked as the 7 Best by the Forums expert group.
