Get your TV idea commissioned by July with Combined Mind and Current TV

 CurrentTV  are looking to Greenlight shows by mid July and have asked Combined Mind to help find the best ideas out there.

We know our members are bursting with original ideas for fresh programming and this is exactly what Current TV are looking for.

Why not go directly to Current ourselves we hear you ask?

Please feel free to do just that HERE but if you have a great idea and are not an established Production Company with access to all that is required to make the programme that you want to make, then Combined MInd are here to do that for you and with you.

We will be pitching the best and most appropriate ideas to Current on your behalf and if your idea is commissioned we will produce the programme with you.

Combined Mind is no ordinary production company.

We are here to help you get your creative voice heard and to help develop your projects to make them stronger – without ripping you off.

Read the brief below, fill in the submission form and then click submit.

Current is proud to commission the best emerging factual talent, both on and off screen, so we want to hear from indies of all sizes who can turn small budgets into big ideas, as well as from inspiring, intelligent new presenters and authors who bring genuine smarts to the table.

We are looking for 30’ and 60’ factual series, one-offs and formats that have the potential to be brand-defining and attract a large UK audience of smart 25-44 year olds.

Current shows are intelligent, innovative, spark discussion and tap into the issues directly affecting our UK audience. Titles and concepts that leap off the EPG are a must, as is a surprising and engaging way into the subject.

We are looking for:

• Intelligent, noisy one-offs that bring exciting insight into Modern Britain such as Britain's Happy Hookers.

• Series and features that feel authentic in the way they tackle important issues such as the On... series.

• Inexpensive, quick to make fact ent formats that are entertaining and have something powerful to say, such as What Did I Do Last Night? which tackled binge drinking in new way.

• Quick turnaround, high-volume formats that make use of our small studio space such as the Tim Shaw & … series.

• Shows that use multiplatform effectively to engage and excite our audience.

• Topicality but not ideas pegged to specific events or dates. Ask yourself – ‘will this still be relevant in a year’s time?’

• Ideas that sell themselves and generate their own PR so a UK link or focus is essential.

So now you know what Current are looking for.
