A one day workshop specifically designed for TV producers, Production Managers and Heads of Production to help you do better co-production deals.
Financing TV production is changing. traditional broadcaster money is drying up and sourcing, signing and operating co-production agreements has become a funding necessity.
Whether you set your horizons domestically, internationally, with multiple broadcasters or production companies, the challenges of effective co-production will test the skills of the most dynamic programme maker.
