We’re back and bringing y’all some of our favorite past conversations along with behind-the-scenes stories of how they were put together. Caitlin and Emily give you up-to-date insight into what’s happening with this year’s virtual festival: ATX TV...from the Couch!
It’s like a flashback episode and a spoiler alert all rolled into one.
This week’s episode has our co founders sharing their current quarantine queues and discussing how leadership plays a part in the current crisis. Whether it is the President of a country, a network, or a festival this is a time we all are in need of strong leaders.
Following this week’s chat, we are re-releasing The Presidents of the State of TV (2017, Season 6): From network to cable to streaming platforms, these individuals are deciding the fate of your current and future favorite programming. As we continue to live in a perpetual state of ""Peak TV,"" how does a network or studio decide what content to create? How do they balance their brand, while continuing to grow and challenge their viewers? As the landscape grows, ""channels"" are racing to build audiences' trust in what can be expected from their content -- but budgets get tighter, decisions to make a pilot vs. straight to series get harder, which equals a rising pressure to define their brands and establish audiences.
