TTV INNOVATES WITH ITS AUGMENTED REALITY PUBLICATION

Reality Beyond Fiction

10/TTV PREVIEW

At the 2014 Mipcom in Cannes, TodoTVMedia and Unik Media Solutions will present the TV industry’s first Augmented Reality magazine. A neverbefore-seen, interactive product that packs on the surprises.

By todotvnews.com

I

nnovation and creativity go hand in hand in this new interactive experience presented by TodoTVMedia through its ttv magazine: an added value offer that makes the company a pioneer in innovation and creativity in media platforms. Our clients have already discovered its value. Now, see for yourselves. Learn, discover and be amazed by the many uses of this groundbreaking app.

This new ttv magazine -which will be available during Mipcom 2014- is a gateway into a multimedia ecosystem that includes news, articles, promotional videos and trailers for new productions, 3D images, video interviews, photo galleries and an entire virtual universe that surpasses the limits of the imagination. The key to all this is nothing more than an app that’s easy to download and use on any smartphone or tablet.

Many of our clients have tried out the Augmented Reality (AR) app and used it at recent tradeshows. Now, we invite everyone to find out more about its advantages and added value, and surprise their own clients with a unique and innovative way to present products.

This is a service backed by Unik Media Solutions, from creation to execution in each project.

WHAT IS AUGMENTED REALITY? Through an Augmented Reality app, users can look at a regular object through their smartphones or tablets and see an entirely new reality developing on the screen. As incredible as it sounds, the object comes to life!

“Innovation and creativity go hand in hand in this new interactive experience presented

by TodoTVMedia.”

“A multimedia ecosystem that includes news, articles, promotional videos and trailers for new productions, 3D images, video interviews and photo galleries.”

Augmented reality is one of the most exciting technologies around. If you have watched those modern Hollywood movies, you’ve probably seen them as how our world would look like 20-30 years from now. This is the chance to experience the future, today.

For instance, the device could be used to focus on a printed Mickey Mouse flyer and see the character come to life on the phone; dancing, talking and moving. The object can be almost anything: a logo, a billboard, a T-shirt, a magazine, etc.

HOW DOES THE AR APP WORK? Augmented Reality is the name given to a group of apps that use a camera’s interphase to focus on a real-life object and create a different visual on-screen, may it be an animated “clone” of said object, a video, a website or whatever the programmer makes it to be.

And the resulting new reality can also be whatever the programmer wants: a 3D image, an audio recording, a video, a website, and maybe even all of these elements combined into a digital ecosystem.

Once the app is installed, it’s enough to just open it and focus on the object as if taking a normal picture, and immediately the new reality appears on the device’s screen.

LA SCREENINGS 2014

“My admiration is augmented.

It’s a magazine that’s clearly on a league of its own. ttv is in a very special place in terms of technology and innovation.”

“I’m afraid that if we don’t take this next step and use what these gentlemen are offering, we’ll be left behind.”

“Great. So original. I’ve never seen anything like this. They’re the first ones and make it so easy.”

TTV PREVIEW/11

The official presentation was done through the ttv LA Screenings magazine presented at the LA Screenings 2014, which took place from May 13 through the 21st in Los Angeles, US. Viewers were presented with a different way to view content, using Augmented Reality (AR) technology. Ads and articles featured an AR logo for readers to scan with a special app on their smartphones, and start living the AR experience.

Executives’ reactions at the tradeshow were consistent. Here is some of that feedback:

ttvpreview MIPCOM 2014

EXPO CANITEC 2014 Another one of the tradeshows where the AR app was introduced was Expo Canitec 2014, held on May 28-30 in Acapulco, Mexico. There, the ttv magazine once again wowed attendees through its innovative way of presenting content, in addition to several live AR experiences rolled out at the venue. For instance, Warner Channel had a roll-up for its series ‘Believe’ in HBO Latin America Group’s stand, which attendees could interact with using their mobile phones.

In addition, two beautiful promoters made demonstrations with the magazine for everyone at the event.

Here is some of the feedback:

“I think it’s a great initiative by ttv. It changes the experience of reading the magazine -which in itself has so much valuable information for industry executives- because it makes it interactive.”

“I think adding this AR element to the todotv magazine means they’re in the cutting edge of technology. I congratulate them for the excellent idea and execution.”

“COUNTRY OF HONOR” MIPCOM 2014

Mexico: the Hispanic Giant 28/TTV PREVIEW

México Suena Televisa

The Mexican market is dominated by two main media groups with total control over the country’s audiovisual entertainment production; and is known worldwide for its solid infrastructure, talented professionals and production studios.

Its media industry has become one of the world’s busiest content factories, with productions now distributed worldwide. The groundbreaking telecommunications reform promoted by President Enrique Peña Nieto will potentially revolutionize the international audiovisual landscape. In the following article, ttv takes in-depth look at the Mipcom 2014 “Country of Honor”.

By Sebastián Amoroso Twitter: @sebamoroso samoroso@todotv.tv

T

he Mexican audiovisual market’s current layout is quite simple: Televisa (Grupo Televisa/Emilio Azcárraga Jean) stands in one corner, with Azteca (Grupo Salinas/Ricardo Salinas Pliego) in the other. The two media conglomerates control and compete in the country’s TV industry, and are also heavyweights in the international arena. This is the traditional way of looking at Mexico’s audiovisual landscape, but over the last few months the country has been rocked by new legislations and changes that are painting a new, more complex scenario.

MEXICO IN PERSPECTIVE. The Mexican TV industry, with Televisa as its main player, has always benefited from the lack of barriers in its commercial exchanges with the US. It both acquires and exports significant amounts of content to and from US networks, producing countless hours of telenovelas for the Hispanic US market.

These agreements and the solid relationship between both companies are part of Televisa’s strategy to face its rivals’ recent movements: NBCUniversal acquiring the second largest Hispanic US channel, Telemundo; and Azteca launching Azteca America (now called Azteca a secas) in the market.

As far as specific numbers go, the Federal Government organization ProMéxico says Mexico’s ad sales rose to US$4.6 billion in 2013, including sales in television, radio, magazines, online and mobile platforms.

The TV industry registered ad sales of over US$1.4 billion during Q1 2014. 94% was invested in broadcast TV, ending on the same level as Brazil with 30% of ad sales in Latin America, according to DataCheck.

A MARKET DIVIDED IN HALF. The Mexican TV landscape presents a duopoly controlled by the two aforementioned media groups: Televisa, the undisputed leader; and Azteca, its direct competitor since 1993. Both companies control close to 94% of the country’s stations.

Televisa’s broadcast network catalog includes El Canal de las Estrellas, Canal 5, FOROtv and Gala TV (ex Galavisión); and its Televisa Regional division operates 258 stations in Mexico on the affiliated Telesistema Mexicano. Televisa’s channels are also available in HD on channels 44, 48, 49 and 50. In addition, Televisa Networks, its pay TV division, operates 16 channels offering movies, music and telenovelas; as well as representing other brands.

Televisa Group also owns pay TV and telecommunications operators Cablevisión and Cablemás, and has a 50% stake in DTH provider Sky Mexico, among other operations.

All in all, Televisa entertains over 70% of the Mexican TV audience.

TTV PREVIEW/29

Televisa’s business across the Río Bravo has always been fruitful and the group currently co-owns and manages the Univision network, one of the leading channels in the Hispanic US market. It also has an ongoing agreement with the network to receive and provide content until 2017. The group has a stake in pay TV channel UniMás (former Telefutura) and in a jointventure to launch other pay TV channels in the near future.

Through this content exchange with US channels, Mexican audiences have an assorted TV offer to choose from, although it’s evident they often turn to national formats and productions, especially telenovelas, which are still the country’s highest-rated broadcasts.

OTT There are currently eight OTT providers in Mexico: Total Movie (Grupo Salinas), Netflix, Crackle (Sony), Vudú (Walmart), ClaroVideo (América Móvil), iTunes Movies (Apple), Klick (Cinépolis) and VEO (Televisa).

Yet, when Azteca made its way to Mexico, the group lost its monopolistic control of the audience and advertisers: in its first four years in the business, Azteca reached 33% of the national audience.

Azteca operates the Azteca Trece and Azteca Siete channels in Mexico through more than 300 local stations, in addition to Proyecto 40 in UHF, and broadcasts its content in HD on digital channels 24HD and 25HD.

munity, only available on cable and digital platforms.

The company also manages international channels: recently renewed under the AZ TV de Paga umbrella, a unit that creates, controls and manages content and channels offered on Azteca’s international pay TV platforms such as AZMundo (former Azteca Internacional), AZCorazón (former Azteca Novelas), AZClic and AZCinema.

The country’s main pay TV providers are SKY (38.8%), Dish (16.9%), Megacable (12.5%), Cablevisión, Cablemás (6.1%), Cablecom (5.2%), Telecable and MVS Televisión; among others. Moreover, these cable concessionaries have thoroughly benefited from the technological convergence with the telecommunications industry.

Azteca also owns Azteca (former Azteca America), the Hispanic US TV channel, airing in over 70 territories for more than 91% of the country’s Hispanic homes.

TELECOMMUNICATIONS REFORM. The recent telecommunications’ reform has certainly marked a before and after in Mexico. It was passed by president Enrique Peña Nieto (2012 - present), who in June of 2013 signed the decree for the reform of the economic competition and telecommunication industry.

Aside from the two giants, Cadena Tres is also operating in Mexico as Grupo Imagen’s broadcaster. Its main station is XHTRES-TV (channel 28 in Mexico City). Its content is rebroadcast in three cities in Mexico: XHILA-TV in Mexicali, California; XHIJ-TV in Juárez City, Chihuahua; and XHNSS-TV in Nogales, Sonora.

It’s also available in select TV platforms in the country.

Private free-to-air stations are controlled by the Television and Radio Industry Chamber (CIRT). As for public television, the government owns one of the three national channels: Canal 11. Canal 22, owned by the extinct Imevisión, is now cultural public TV. These are controlled by the Secretary of Public Education and the National Council for Arts and Culture, respectively.

There’s also the Congress Channel, financed through public grants, created in 2000 as an outlet for the country’s cultural and artistic com-

Moreover, the pay TV industry reached 56.7% penetration, covering 17,103,000 million subscribers, according to Business Bureau.

During the ceremony, the president said the reform is “beneficial for all Mexicans” because it will make the industry more competitive and modern. “With this reform, all Mexicans win. The audience wins, because in addition to enjoying the benefits of entering the digital era, it will have access to higher-quality products and services, as well as better prices,” he said. “The companies also win, because they’ll be able to provide services more efficiently, with higher profits and lower expenses.

And ultimately Mexico wins, because with a modern telecommunication industry with higher competition, the entire economy becomes more productive and competitive in the international arena.”

Peña Nieto highlighted the “spirit of agreement” brought on by

the Pact for Mexico, as well as the reform’s six pillars: updating the legal framework, strengthening the institutional ground with new independent regulatory entities, encouraging fair competition, establishing a policy for digital inclusion and connectivity, and growing the country’s audiovisual infrastructure.

The reform’s main goals are to create a new regulatory entity called the Federal Telecommunications Institute (IFT), licensing two national public TV channels, increasing foreign investments in telecommunication and satellite communication to 100%, and eliminating monopolistic practices.

América Móvil (Telmex) -owned

by Carlos Slim of Grupo Carsoand Televisa, are the main groups affected by the reform due to their dominant control of the market (they were defined as monopolistic economic agents). While América Móvil controlls close to 70% of the Mexican mobile telephony market and 80% of its fixed telephony; Televisa covers 70% of Mexico’s TV market and is one of the leading pay TV players.

This controversy became even more complicated with Slim and Grupo Televisa’s appeal to the resolution.

In addition to the several announcements of asset sales -still unconfirmed- done by América Móvil to stop being a monopolistic agent.

“The IFT must make sure the largest economic agent has abided by the law, met its terms and conditions for at least 24 consecutive months,” the ruling says, justifying the company’s decision. After said time lapse, the IFT will have 60 additional days to authorize the company’s change or not.

On the one hand, América Móvil may have to continue waiting before it can provide TV services, since the Government established the IFT has up to two years to determine if Carlos Slim’s company can actually enter the TV business.

Meanwhile, September 2 marked the beginning of a tender for two new broadcast TV licenses to be granted. With the estimated value already set for the licenses (US$ 62 million), Mexico has finally started the countdown to have two new broadcast TV channels, which will surely revolutionize the TV landscape. According to the IFT, in just five years each of the new networks could aspire to have 8.5% share of the market.

While Televisa and Azteca are excluded from the licensing, América Móvil is excluded for being a monopolistic entity. The IFT is looking to grant both licenses to different groups.

Fernando Borjón, commissioner from the Federal Telecommunications’ Institute (IFT), said interest shown for the two networks is as high as expected, with between five and ten offers made already.

“We already received offers from interested parties, I know who they are but can’t reveal any names. It’s more than five but less than ten, I can’t say the exact number, but apparently there are companies that appear twice,” he said at the International Forum of the Telecommunications Reform. The names will be revealed on November 20.

The licensing is for 246 frequencies for two new broadcast TV channels in Mexico, and the licenses will last for 20 years. Each TV network will have to be integrated with up to 123 broadcast channels. The IFT’s final decision will be revealed on June 10, 2015.

PRODUCTION: IN-HOUSE AND OVERSEAS. The Mexican audiovisual production industry is still a duopoly: Televisa and Azteca are its two main production houses, with giant studios built through billiondollar investments, where most of their productions are made. In addition, both companies’ productions travel across Latin America and the world, with exports being a major part of their current business.

Televisa produces close to 90,000 hours of new programming a year, divided between series, telenovelas, realities and specials, among others.

As for Azteca, it produces around 12,000 hours of content each year, also covering multiple TV genres.

Recent analysis of the Mexican landscape show Mexico exported US$5.16 billion in creative assets in 2008, becoming the largest content provider in Latin America, followed

Several conflicts have risen from this new regulatory framework, mainly when it comes to Dish broadcasting (must carry, must offer) Televisa’s and Azteca’s channels; as well as Cablevisión and Megacable being sanctioned for their “monopolistic practices,” according to the IFT.

On August 13, the Telecommunications Reform’s so-called “secondary laws” came into effect. In this sense, Televisa triumphed over América Móvil by managing to have the monopoly clause be determined in each industry, thus preventing the law from classifying it as monopolistic in the pay TV industry and thus making it more difficult for America Móvil, which would have to reduce its business if it wants to enter the pay TV arena.

(Creative Economy Report 2010, United Nations).

ProMéxico recently revealed the media and creative industry is the fifth most important in Mexico, generating 3% of the GDP (Gross Domestic Product), with an annual growth of 8.3%. In addition, Mexico is also the sixth largest provider of new media in the world, and the 18th for creative productions: its titles are distributed across 100 countries.

A few independent producers work alongside these production powerhouses and indie titles are usually left out of the small screen: most independent producers make a living through advertising and movies.

32/TTV PREVIEW

INDEPENDENT PRODUCTION. Mexico’s independent producers are represented by the Mexican Association of Independent Producers (AMPI). According to the National Statistical Directory of Economic Entities (DENUE), Mexico currently has 1,418 economic units devoted to producing programming for cable and satellite TV offers; feature films and video. Over 300 short films and 100 feature films were developed in 2013 alone.

Moreover, Mexico has several funding programs to support a wide variety of content production projects, from screenwriting to production and post-production of both short titles and feature films, as well as promoting co-productions. Some of the industry’s main funds are: Fidecine, Eficine 189, Ibermedia, Estímulo a la Promoción de Cine Mexicano, Foprocine and FondoAudiovisual.

Luis Peraza, executive VP of Acquisitions and Original Production at HBO Latin America Group, said:

ANALOG SWITCH-OFF The Federal Telecommunications Commission (Cofetel) kicked off the transition to DTT on July 18, 2013 in Tijuana, Baja California. The IFT set November 26 as the date to start the process in Ciudad Juárez, Nuevo Laredo, Reynosa, Matamoros and Monterrey. And in November 2014 it will add fifteen other cities, including Mexico DF. The final date to complete the analog switch-off has already been postponed three times, from May 4, 2012 to April 4, 2013; and now December 31, 2015.

“Mexico has many companies devoted to advertising, many of them for movies and a few for television, outside the main networks. It’s not like in Brazil, for instance, where there are more independent producers who’ve been around for a very long time. However, we have already gotten excellent results working with producers devoted to advertising or movies, who have a different way of doing things. So far, we’ve worked with Argos, and they’re very skilled in creative development and execution. There are also a great number of alternatives to produce content in Mexico.”

In fact, Argos Comunicación, led

by Epigmenio Ibarra, stands out as a notable independent producer, responsible for numerous movies such as ‘Sexo, pudor y lágrimas’, and series like ‘Capadocia’ by HBO Latin America Group. Its main clients include HBO Latin America Group, Discovery Networks Latin America/ US Hispanic, Azteca, Telemundo, ESPN, Venevision, Disney Channel and Cadena Tres.

Argos also has a production agreement signed with Telemundo Stu-

dios. “We are currently producing ‘La Impostora’ and the second season of ‘El Señor de los Cielos’,” said Joshua Mintz, EVP of Fiction and general manager at Telemundo Studios.

In regard to the benefits of investing in Mexico’s vast TV market, the executive said: “Mexico is an enormous market. It’s been a TV production house for over 60 years now, becoming a pioneer in TV, radio and music production industries. As for television, it’s become a referent of TV production in Latin America and the US, in addition to distributing content worldwide.”

Other top contenders in this area are Mediamates, devoted to design, creation, production and postproduction for reality shows, game shows, advertainment and series; and El Mall Producciones, responsible for hit series such as ‘Gossip Girl Acapulco’ –Latin American version of The CW’s ‘Gossip Girl’-, developed with Warner Bros. and Televisa.

There are many other producers in Mexico, most of them devoted to advertising (The Lift, for instance) that have much of an impact in the TV market. There’s also those such as Dubbing House, who provide dubbing services for all types of productions and has been in the market for a decade.

In conclusion, as Emiliano Calemzuk, former president of Fox Television Studios and ex CEO of Shine Group Americas sees it, “Mexico has a strong economy and content production is expensive, but the market has tremendous potential,” in terms of infrastructure as well as creative talent. Its massive amount of consumers and sustained growth make Mexico one of the most important TV markets in America. ttv

Lee Hunt, Brand Strategist, Founder of Lee Hunt LLC

38/TTV PREVIEW

The Importance of Identity In what was the most interesting conference of another strong showing of panels at ABTA 2014, TV branding specialist Lee Hunt offered an excellent expose about the different resources channels can use to set themselves apart in a saturated market: “There are three things a TV network has to do to be successful. It has to define itself, it has to differentiate itself from the competition and it has to make sure it’s relevant to its target audience.”

By Luis Cabrera Twitter: luis_cabreram lcabrera@todotv.tv

“Do you guys watch a show or do you watch a channel?” was the first thing Lee Hunt asked attendees at the most attractive keynote of the strong lineup of conferences that were held during the ABTA 2014 Tradeshow and Congress. Raised hands in the audience showed an answer that was overwhelmingly biased toward the former, setting the stage for the excellent presentation by the founder of Lee Hunt LLC, a renowned TV branding expert and on-air architect.

Hunt is known worldwide for his work both in and outside the US, where he’s launched, re-launched and positioned many channels. He is responsible for the branding of channels like Lifetime, VH1 and TNT.

One of the most poignant points Hunt made was how channels need to rethink their role. Hunt, for instance, considers them to be content curators. On the other hand, the expert also insisted on the importance of defining a brand and differentiating it with a clear identity that’s easily communicated.

ttv had the opportunity to sit down with the expert before the conference and talk about the increasing importance of branding in a saturated market.

How would you define your job? I’m primarily a brand strategist for television networks because what we do on the media side is really different from what consumer products do with their marketing. What we do is very dynamic, our content is always growing, and changing and evolving. So I call what we do dynamic branding, and it has a number of paradoxes that separates it from what consumer product brands do. We try to focus on those paradoxes to help TV networks and media companies go beyond them and try to increase viewing time and get more people to sample more content.

What are these paradoxes? The first paradox is that in order to be successful you need to have the same reach as a general entertainment network but the same

TTV PREVIEW/39

The concepts he shared during his talk in Sao Paulo sparked interest in the audience, especially those involved in pay TV who made good use of their opportunity to ask the expert questions once the conference was over.

“Any brand communication has to embody four things: it has to be simple, obvious, intuitive and emotional.”

Q&A ttvpreview

“The behavior of watching TV or really taking any kind of media has more to do with being a human being, RATHER THAN WHAT CULTURE, what language, what country you live in.” focus as a niche network, in order for people to understand what you are all about. The second paradox is that TV networks, particularly general entertainment channels, are a lot of different things to different people, at different times and on different platforms. In the end the challenge is to stand for one thing for all of those different audiences. The third paradox is that TV networks always have to be fresh and continue evolving, but at the same time they want to be consistent so that their viewers know what to expect time in and time out. Once you are dealing with all of these different paradoxes and try to put them together in how you package, promote, and sell your programing, station or network, it becomes something way more complicated than what consumer product brands do.

Are these paradoxes the same in every territory?

The paradoxes for media brands are universal because the behavior of watching TV or really taking any kind of media has more to do with being a human being, rather what culture, what language, what country you live in. That’s why so much content passes easily from culture to culture, continent to continent.

40/TTV PREVIEW

What role does all of this play at the time of competing for viewership? The paradoxes really affect competition as well. There are three things that a TV networks has to do to be successful: it has to define

itself, it has to differentiate itself from the competition and it has to make sure that is relevant to that target audience. Obviously different channels approach different audiences and different demographics, but nevertheless there are so many players going after the same audiences that you need to make sure that you differentiate your product in the way you talk about your programming, in the way you promote it and in way you think about it, what that attitude is. Trying to have that one position, that one thing you can stand for as a TV network, it’s very challenging. But if you can stand for one thing, it becomes very powerful.

What are the main branding keys a channel must consider? I really believe that any brand communication has to embody four things: it has to be simple, obvious, intuitive and emotional. There has to be some reason for me to care. Because if I don’t care, if I don’t understand what you’re about in a split second, I’m not going to stop and think about it. People don’t think when they’re watching television, they experience. So making sure that your brand is a part of that experience and that they intuitively know what you stand for - that’s really the goal.

How important are these concepts when you think of the TV industry as a global thing? Television is going through tremendous changes, not only because of the kind of content that we have available, but also because of the way people consume content, in all of these different platforms. And one of the main challenges for television networks is that if you’re not the means of distribution, if people are watching your content but not necessarily watching it on your channel, then why are you relevant? And that’s why television channels need to find new ways to become relevant, and part of that is really becoming those filters for different kinds of content, standing for one thing. So that way, when I go to a TLC or FX, I may not know exactly what show is going to be on, but I get a pretty good sense of what I’m going to get out of it. Because the reality is that with so many channels available, and so many platforms, it’s almost impossible for viewers to make choices without some kind of filter to help them decide “This is something interesting, this is worth sampling, even though I’ve never heard of it before.” ttv

‘DOCTOR WHO’ GOES ON TOUR

48/TTV PREVIEW

The Doctor Is Back

For 50 years and counting, the Doctor and his TARDIS have taken millions of fans in countless adventures, becoming not only a significant part of British popular culture, but a worldwide cult television favorite. This year, ‘Doctor Who’ made a spectacular return with Peter Capaldi’s long awaited debut as the Twelfth Doctor, the feature-length premiere of the eighth season’s first episode in cinemas around the world and an international tour across seven cities in five continents.

By Carolina Mussio Twitter: @carolinamussio cmussio@todotv.tv

‘Doctor Who’ was first broadcast on BBC One at 5:15PM on Saturday November 23, 1963, as a small, educational family show made to fill a timeslot, created by TV producer and BBC Head of Drama, Sydney Newman.

Fifty one years later, the series is watched by an estimated 80 million viewers in 206 countries, and has been honored by Guinness World Records as both the longest-running and most-successful science-fiction series in the world.

50 YEARS AND COUNTING. As a franchise, ‘Doctor Who’ is one of the most successful ones in the history of television. “It has existed for over half a century and it’s truly about the dynamics between good and evil in a sci-fi setting,” said Fred Medina, Executive Vice President and Managing Director of BBC Worldwide Latin America/US Hispanic, to ttv. “The writing around the show and the characters that develop are complex, so what it forces the audience to do is engage and really participate in the show.”

When saying “audience”, Medina refers to the entire family. “It’s a shared experience, making the show very unique. Because not only does the show evolve over time, the characters evolve, but it is a part of a viewing experience that is passed on between parents and children, and then their eventual offspring.

So there’s a number of generations of viewers that have enjoyed ‘Doctor Who’, enjoyed the dynamics of its storytelling, and the evolvement of the characters.”

A NEW ERA. This year, ‘Doctor Who’ made its triumphant return to the big screen on August 23 in the feature-length premiere episode of series 8, “Deep Breath”. The episode was screened in dozens of participating cinemas around the world.

“This season, the main character has evolved and regenerated, from Matt Smith to Peter Capaldi, so it’s an exciting time for fans. This doesn’t happen often. It

“The show is very unique, because not only does it evolve over time, but it is a part of a viewing experience that is passed on between parents and children.” happened 12 times over the course of the many seasons the doctor has existed. So it’s a really special time for the show’s followers,” Medina said.

BEYOND THE TV SCREEN. ‘Doctor Who’ has been broadcast in English-speaking countries worldwide,

‘DOCTOR WHO’: THE WORLD TOUR Seven cities. Five continents. One Doctor.

Following on from last year’s global smash-hit 50th anniversary, BBC Worldwide embarked on a major global publicity tour to launch the new series of ‘Doctor Who’ and introduce Peter Capaldi as the new Doctor. “Doctor Who: The World Tour” began in the UK on August 7 and finished in Brazil on August 19, as the Doctor, on-screen companion Jenna Coleman, and the show’s lead writer and executive producer Steven Moffat, visited Cardiff and London (UK), Seoul (South Korea), Sydney (Australia), New York (US), Mexico City (Mexico) and Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). “This is where BBC truly demonstrates its boldness and courageousness,” said Fred Medina, Executive Vice President and Managing Director of BBC Worldwide Latin America/US Hispanic. “With a bold approach we had a fan event in seven cities across the globe. Seven cities were important, but more important was executing a world tour with the comfort and level of assurance that BBC is one of the most respected media brands in the world, and in both mature and emerging markets a franchise like ‘Dr Who’ can be successful.” Dominio internet: .mx

TTV PREVIEW/49

Directed by acclaimed director Ben Wheatley and written by lead writer and executive producer Steven Moffat, the beginning of the Twelfth Doctor’s era stars Peter Capaldi as the Doctor, Jenna Coleman as his companion Clara Oswald, and sees the return of fan favorites The Paternoster Gang -Madame Vastra (Neve McIntosh), Jenny Flint (Catrin Stewart) and Strax (Dan Starkey)– in a pulse-racing adventure through Victorian London.

“’Doctor Who’ has existed for over half a century and it’s truly about the dynamics between good and evil in a sci-fi setting.”

ttvpreview INTERVIEW

“Our goal is to continue to offer our audiences the capacity to view the show whenever and wherever they want.” and its main character has adapted to all the countries it’s travelled to, as Medina sees it, “due to great storytelling and finding an audience that is engaged and socialized. And that socialization today has become much more effective with the social networks we have now.”

Deemed as “one of the three core businesses” for BBC, along with content and brands, Medina believes digital is one of the main areas of focus for the company, especially when it comes to promoting a show as huge as ‘Doctor Who’: “Content means spending and investing in great ideas, that translate through great storytelling. And if you build that great content inside a strong brand, like a BBC branded environment like our channels, you effectively build on the credibility, respect and the relationship that BBC has created with audiences across the globe. And then you invest in digital, because if you have the capacity to flex your business to address the expanding relationship between viewers and content, then you make yourself that much more effective and relevant in the long term business.”

50/TTV PREVIEW

For ‘Doctor Who’, BBC has taken a classic title with a cult following and built around it an opportunity for fans to engage in a live event, in linear transmition, in theatrical exhibitions, in digital platforms and engagement in consumer products and home entertainment. Essentially, closing the loop in fans’ experiences, so that they can see it at home on their own, in public environments with other people or buy products.

THE FUTURE AHEAD. With its eighth season just recently premiered, there’s still a lot more Doctor left for 2014, and BBC is more than ready to continue building on this worldwide phenomenon. “Our goal is to

continue to offer our audiences the capacity to view the show whenever and wherever they want. BBC is one of the few companies that truly offer this experience.”

“So the series will be featured in its original state in English with subtitles. And all around the world the series will then be dubbed. The transformation between subtitles and dubbing enables you to reach broader audiences. From cinema to pay TV, digital platforms, home entertainment and then broadcast networks. As long as we build on acceptability, the reach of audiences becomes exponential,” he concluded. ttv

‘DOCTOR WHO’S’ NUMBERS 12 actors have portrayed the Doctor since the show began in 1936.

51 years were reached in 2014 since the show’s premiere.

29 is how many different companions the Doctor has had to date.

INSIDE LOOK AT ‘DOCTOR WHO’ ‘Doctor Who Extra’ is a brand new series, exclusively on BBC iPlayer. Much more than a “making of”, the series follows Peter Capaldi every step of the way throughout the creation of his first season as the Doctor. Over the course of 12 programmes, it will trace the highs and lows of Doctor Who’s most ambitious run of episodes yet, getting the inside take on series 8 from the people who made it. ‘The Doctor Who Extra’ team had unparalleled access to stars including Peter Capaldi, Jenna Coleman and Samuel Anderson (series regular Danny Pink) plus guests Frank Skinner, Keeley Hawes, Michelle Gomez, Ben Miller, Foxes and many more. Writers, such as Lead Writer and Executive Producer Steven Moffat, and directors also contribute as they spill the beans on the on and off-screen drama.

Special report

I

n Latin America, and in general for anyone that’s not familiarized with the content distribution business, it’s hard to understand how the same movie can cost US$ 4,000 in one country and maybe US$ 900,000 somewhere else. It’s also difficult to understand why some fictions cost US$ 300 per episode to make in some territories and US$ 8,000 in others. The truth is, that price tag depends on many different elements, and depending on how much a product costs to make is how much it will sell for.

The elements that can modify how much an audiovisual production costs are mainly four: how big the market it will air in is, at what time it will be broadcast, the genre and its previous success.

The economic factors will impact the final equation.

In the main markets in Latin America, and according to many of the key players in the advertising industry, the level of business done by the networks hasn’t been able to catch up to what it was prior to the economic crisis in 2002, despite a recent uplift.

This doesn’t mean channels are down on their luck or unable to invest in good content. Globally, the level of content acquisition remains the same, except of course for those who’ve devoted more resources to original production.

54/TTV PREVIEW

Timeslots devoted to third-party programming have been reduced, at least across the main broadcast TV channels. This naturally has a clear influence on the competition between distributors, who make up for this loss by taking content to new platforms. However, rights for digital platforms do deserve a chapter all on their own.

ARGENTINA. As one of the main markets, Argentina has seen investments on original content and entertainment format adaptation grow notably in the last few years. On the one hand, formats are one of the main pillars of Argentina’s original content development, and a useful tool to engage audiences. It’s Argentinean independent producers’ specialty, the main reason why Argentina -according to official numbers- is currently in fourth place in the global format sales’ race, behind the UK, the US and Holland.

Yet, the Argentinean market is not only a great format producer, it’s also an avid consumer. Companies such as Endemol, Sony and many others have shown plenty of interest in Argentina’s productions.

Formats cost between US$ 1,000 and US$ 8,000 per show, depending on which timeslot it will air in, the network, the format and other factors.

Some formats impose a bigger risk than others in terms of production costs. ‘Big Brother’, for instance, couldn’t be compared with a format where a presenter walks around Buenos Aires with a hand-held camera.

Movies, another key production for Argentina’s broadcast TV up until just fifteen years ago, are evolving on par with the global trend, slowly migrating towards VOD platforms and pay TV channels.

Because of this, the price for foreign movies has decreased notably. Fifteen years ago a blockbuster premiere could cost up to US$ 1 million, but the price is nowhere near that today.

Other than blockbusters, independent films play in a very different ballpark, costing around US$ 5,000 each.

PERU. In Peru, where audiovisual production and the economy in general have grown notably, both original production and its prices have also increased.

As a market it’s definitely one of the most interesting ones in the region. While original production costs between US$ 30,000 and US$ 40,000 an episode, prices for taped content varies much more depending on the type of production.

A telenovela can cost between US$ 1,000 and US$ 1,400 per episode, and kids’ series vary from US$ 400 to US$ 500.

Documentaries’ price tag is quite similar to other countries, with prices varying from US$ 900 to US$ 1,400, depending on the subject matter, the length and interest the film may spark among audiences.

“The elements that can modify how much an audiovisual production costs are mainly four: how big the market it will air in is, at what time it will be broadcast, the genre and its previous success.”

Special report “Globally, the level of content acquisition remains the same, except of course for those who’ve devoted more resources to original production.”

MEXICO. Mexico stands as the most important Hispanic market in Latin America. Despite being controlled by two major media groups -Televisa and Azteca- their network and content offer, in addition to the array of local, pay TV and online channels, make it a very important market.

It comes as no surprise that ReedMiden has decided to not only make it this year’s Country of Honor at Mipcom, but is also investing on organizing a new, smaller market in Cancun.

In Mexico, feature films are still an essential part of its programming. In fact, prices for movies vary immensely and can cost anywhere between US$ 20,000 for independent titles and US$ 90,000 for blockbusters.

Film studios are thus very important in the Mexican market, being one of the first countries to see major ones arrive and set up shop there many decades ago.

But the Mexican landscape also has top-tier channels, culture and niche networks that have big budgets to devote to content acquisitions.

In this scenario, movies can be acquired for US$ 5,000 to US$ 20,000. And series can cost between US$ 5,000 and US$ 8,000 an episode, while documentaries run for US$ 1,000 to US$ 3,000 each. Animation can cost up to US$ 2,500 an hour.

BRAZIL. Another one of Latin America’s great markets is Brazil. This country though, as immense as it is, has its own set of rules. Not only are its dimensions huge, but also its political framework that limits the amount of foreign content it can acquire, the minimum original production quotas it must meet, the variety of channels and producers, and of course a language and broadcasting rights that differ from the rest of the continent.

In the Latin American giant, prices are very different from one channel to the next. A fiction series can cost between US$ 1,000 and US$ 20,000 an episode, while an animation can be sold for US$ 1,500 an episode, and kids’ live action is valued at US$ 5,000.

All in all, the variables that influence the final number are many. Not surprising considering the amount of secrecy that surrounds content sales and acquisitions.

As far as Latin America goes, this confidentiality is increased even more when it comes to revealing the elements that can increase the end price.

56/TTV PREVIEW

OTHER MARKETS. Smaller markets’ realities are very different and clearly vary depending on the size of the market and the weight of its economy.

Countries like Ecuador, despite its smaller scale, have proven to be interesting and fruitful territories for original production and content sales. Prices seem slightly lower, but they’re forecast to grow soon. While telenovelas vary from US$ 200 to US$ 500 an episode, formats cost between US$ 2,000 and US$ 4,000 each.

And in even smaller countries like Uruguay, series are acquired for US$ 1,200 to US$ 1,500 an episode. ttv

AND CONTENT AT GRUPO TELEVISA

“Three years ago Televisa began a transformation process in the way it thinks about the digital world.”

“Televisa is working to consolidate four main pillars: unfolding original productions on digital platforms, producing content specific for digital audiences, strategic alliances and world-class technological support.”

Televisa in the Digital Ecosystem During the IAB Conecta 2014, held in August in Mexico City, Grupo Televisa’s president of Television and Content spoke about his company’s main goals and business pillars, and defined its place in the digital ecosystem.

T

he IAB Conecta 2014, which took place on August 13-14 at the Expo Bancomer Santa Fe in Mexico City (Mexico), welcomed several speakers representing local and international companies, including José Bastón, president of Television and Content at Grupo Televisa, who offered a conference where he spoke about his company’s main goals and business pillars, and defined its place in the digital ecosystem.

“Televisa’s visión is very clear: being a global leader in production and distribution of Hispanic content for all current and future platforms,” said José “Pepe” Bastón. “To construct this mission -he added- Televisa is working to consolidate four main pillars: unfolding original productions on digital platforms, producing content specific for digital audiences, strategic alliances and world-class technological support.”

In this sense, Bastón shared an overview of the company’s initiatives to meet this goal. “Since we started working in the digital industry over 14 years ago, we’ve made an effort to understand the changing consumption habits of new generations of users, and building on that interest, three years ago Televisa began a transformation process in the way it thinks about the digital world. Our digital initiatives went from being a simple business unit to becoming the very DNA of our content production.”

In addition, the executive explained that “Televisa has combined all of its digital efforts with its productions from a multi-window and interactive perspective.

The online platform became an essential part of our technological infrastructure, to adopt a new, more complete television, enriched with parallel content and content specifically designed for digital platform users.”

José Bastón also said Televisa’s digital efforts “have five common denominators: they’re linked to exclusive content, have a high commercial potential, are

“When social networks came about -he remembered- we were worried about the possibility that conversations in these new spaces happened outside the world of content and far from the advertising business. But the experience has proven this is not the case, and now it’s clear professional content is one of the main detonators of online conversation.”

The executive said that for a while now the transition to digital was limited to rebroadcasting the same content from TV. “Now we’ve learned to produce specific content that compliments the different screens. Our writers, from the beginning, imagine and develop

FLAWLESS TRACK RECORD José Bastón is the president of Television and Content at Grupo Televisa, the largest Hispanic media conglomerate in the world. Bastón joined the company in 1989 as the executive responsible for Marketing Accounts at Canal 12 in Tijuana. He then took on executive roles in key areas within the company, such as Programming, Acquisitions, Planning and Content Development, until he became Corporate Vice President of Television. In 2008, he was named president of Television and Content at Televisa. The business he oversees generates more than 50% of the group’s consolidated units and operative income. Under Bastón’s leadership, Televisa has maintained its status as market leaders in Mexico’s broadcast TV industry, and has made an efficient transition towards digital convergence and internationalizing the company. Today, Televisa is present in 85 countries around the world, producing content in five languages. Televisa’s programs are translated into five languages and unfold across all platforms: four broadcast TV channels, 46 pay TV channels, one of the most visited Spanish-language online platforms, print issues, digital content and mobile devices. José Bastón is also a member of the Administrative Committee and the Executive Committee at Televisa, and a member of the board at Cablevisión Sky and Univision Communications.

“In our current strategy -Bastón said- we’ve defined a digital ecosystem with four basic pillars linked to exclusive content production: televisadeportes.com, noticierostelevisa.com, television and entertainment.”

In addition, “we’re integrating properties from television and pay TV channels to specific niches like music, movies, radio, and film and editorial production.”

born with a multi-window logic, see interactivity as an opportunity to promote content and increase brand engagement.”

ttvpreview TELEVISA José Bastón mentioned that another great initiative in this digital quest was the one done for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil, for which Televisa Deportes was the official broadcaster in Mexico.

“In the FIFA World Cup, Televisa’s live broadcasts for digital devices were a success, to the point of becoming the second best option after the broadcast TV screen. This experience taught us two great lessons: we lived the first truly digital world cup, and second, we confirmed different platform complement television but don’t replace it.” And added: “In fact, the TV audience between South Africa 2010 and Brazil grew notably, same as digital platforms, which proves people consume more content in different platforms at the same time.”

The president of Television and Content at Grupo Televisa also said the company already has made important inroads in custom content production for digital audiences, where digital becomes the go-to screen.

“With this approach, in 2014 we made a complete transformation at Canal 5 to bring it into the Social TV world. We created the PM timeslot -original production thought for digital platforms and from there for primetime- which is now Televisa’s most aggressive bet in terms of transmedia production.”

their stories thinking about the many screens it will be distributed on,” he said.

Bastón believes technological support is another one of the main pillars in Televisa’s digital strategy, and it has two main sides: “on the one hand, we worry about making sure all of our platforms work properly, and on the other, we devote our efforts in the Lab area, which, as the name indicates, is an innovation laboratory to create new digital content and expand our business through alliances.”

He also said a clear example of this digital transformation Televisa has been giving its content is its telenovelas. “Televisa’s telenovelas are original, exclusive content we’re distributing in multiple ways. And today they’re the main productions on televisa.com and all our digital platforms.” In this sense, “we’re investing our energy and resources for our telenovelas, which are our star product, to be digital and available on any screen, anywhere.”

To conclude its presentation, Bastón highlighted Televisa’s interest to find strategic alliances with the top players in the digital world. “We know our strength is in creating content and our on-screen talent, and from this perspective, Televisa is making a sustained effort to establish alliances with the leading digital players. As part of this comes the important alliance Televisa has signed with MiTú, one of the main digital Hispanic players in the US and Latin America,” he concluded. ttv

Born On

‘The Amazing Race’ is a reality television game show in which teams of two people, who have some form of a preexisting personal relationship, race around the world in competition with other teams. Contestants strive to arrive first at “Pit Stops” at the end of each leg of the race to win prizes and to avoid coming in last, which carries the possibility of elimination or a significant disadvantage in the following leg. Contestants travel to and within multiple countries in a variety of transportation modes, including airplanes, hot air balloons, helicopters, trucks, bicycles, taxicabs, cars, jeepneys, trains, buses, boats, and by foot.

Clues provided in each leg lead the teams to the next destination or direct them to perform a task, either together or by a single member. These challenges are related in some manner to the country wherein they are located or its culture.

Teams are progressively eliminated until three are left; at that point, the team that arrives first in the final leg is awarded the grand prize.

Pete Bethune and his elite team of former military commandos travel the world bringing poachers and environmental criminals to justice. Striking from their safe house in South Africa, these ex-special forces environmentalists embark on dangerous missions that push them to their limits. This is real life James Bond meets Captain Planet. Using the coolest high tech equipment – flying surveillance drones, powered parachutes, underwater scooters and amphibious assault vehicles – the highly trained soldiers capture bad guys and expose ecological atrocities. In each standalone episode they gather video evidence against those who harm endangered wildlife.

From shark-infested waters to jungle airstrips and illegal diamond mines, they risk imprisonment, injury or worse in order to take down those who poison rivers, raid turtle hatcheries and club baby seals.

Tellus (Thriller Series - 6 x 50’) Over the past few years, a group of activists have executed a series of eco-motivated sabotages, carefully planned not to harm people. They have not made a single error and the police are totally without leads. Their first mistake accidentally kills someone and the hunt is on. The group needs to make a decision – to stop, to continue – or to take it to the next level. That would mean deliberate kills.

Liberty Global Acquires ITV Shares After acquiring Virgin Media for US$ 23 billion and having finalized a joint venture with Discovery Communications with the goal of buying production and distribution company All3Media, pay TV giant US Liberty Global announced a new operation in the United Kingdom. This time, John Malone’s company acquired a 6.4% share in broadcast channel ITV for US$ 824 million. The purchased shares were previously in the hands of BSkyB, the UK satellite operator in which 21st Century Fox has a 39% stake. The sale of those particular shares might be related to BSkyB’s plan to join UK, Italy and Germany’s operations under a single large European operator, for which it will need liquidity. According to a press release, Liberty Global clarified it has no intention of keeping the entire channel, but it reserves the right to announce a possible deal in the next six months. “This is an opportunistic and attractive investment for us in our largest cable market. ITV is the leading commercial broadcaster in the UK, and we’re excited to be shareholders,” Liberty Global CEO Mike Fries said. “We note Liberty Global’s announcement, and we will work with them as with any other shareholder as we continue our strategy of growing ITV,” an ITV spokesperson said.

FIFA WORLD CUP BRAZIL 2014

World Cup Sparks Soccer Fever in US After years and years waiting for this moment, it seems as if soccer is finally gaining ground in the US, where a true soccer fever spread wildly with the 2014 FIFA World Cup. The last match between Germany and Argentina was followed by 26.5 million viewers in the US, becoming the highest-rated soccer match in US history. Among the 26.5 million viewers, Nielsen says 17.3 million watched it on ABC/ESPN, and 9.2 million through Univision. In addition, 750,000 people watched it online.

Compared to the 2010 Cup, the last game was followed by almost 2 million people more, while the 64 games reached a rating 39% higher both on ESPN and ABC, and 34% higher on Univision. On ESPN, for instance, the games averaged 4.56 million viewers. In 2002, the average was just 1.04 million. In addition to the finals, the game between US and Portugal had also scored record high ratings, reaching 18.2 million viewers on ABC/ESPN. This TV craze joins all the records broken on social networks.

The last gave generated 280 million interactions on Facebook between 88 million people. Now, Facebook revealed the entire Cup generated 3 billion interactions, with 350 million people posting messages. With these numbers, the World Cup becomes the most commented event in Facebook history. Over on Twitter, the event generated 672 million Tweets total and broke two records: most tweets per minute (618,725 when Germany won the whole thing) and being the most tweeted-about event in history (during the Brazil-Germany match, registering 35.6 million comments).
