Description
At the risk of sounding cliché I am looking for any fabulous, unique and brave idea. Big-hearted stories that really move an audience emotionally. TV series are what we are looking for, returning is preferable but limit series’ can also work if the idea is premium and unique. One off films are difficult for us, not out of the question. Australian / New Zealand co-productions are a priority for Sky Originals, but it is essential that the story is authentically NZ and Australian. I am very much open to, and in fact am looking for, ways in which Australian and New Zealand creatives can come together at the early stage of an idea and collaborate to create a wonderfully authentic story. I am looking for stories that will stand above the parapet of the rest. I’m looking for a “hey have you seen THAT show!?” kind of show. NB: Each pitch session lasts 15 minutes, and consists of producers pitching their project to industry buyers and receiving immediate constructive feedback.
