Re: Airtime on a cable network

[Jose Zeinc] "but i want to find an option where i could be the owner of my project and also syndicate in any part of the world so i wont fall short on production costs, and regarding the experience i am broadcast and advertising director with a team of fully experienced producers and post producers that complement and work as a sole unit, "

That will be tough unless you sell all your own sponsorship.

As for the experience, how many television series have you produced prior to this one. I've got almost 20 years experience in broadcast with credits that include Emmy, Peabody, Telly and Aurora awards. We've delivered over 100 HD broadcast episodes in just the past three years alone.

But I've never produced a regular broadcast series on our own. So right now we're developing two original series, but I've partnered with a team that has 13 years experience doing nothing but producing episodic television. I've discussed this in a previous thread that the budgeting and production planning alone was worth their help. Our budgets are over 300 line items long.

Plus pretty much all the U.S. networks won't discuss a series with an un-proven production team unless you're bringing something major to the table like a major media star or some exclusive item they can't get any other way.

I'm speaking from experience on this so that's what I know. If all you want to do is purchase air time like an infomercial, all you have to do is come up with the money and they'll give you an available infomercial slot. Prices vary widely among the cable networks.
