SMALL WORLD. BIG IDEAS is a contest for creators and producers from Ukraine and beyond with innovative concepts for new non-scripted entertainment formats. The contest was organized by Media Resources Management (Ukraine) and backed by Partner Small World IFT (USA).
SMALL WORLD. BIG IDEAS was open to individuals and companies to present their new and original ideas of non-scripted entertainment formats. The submitted concepts could be at any development stage: starting from paper format and on out to the program that has already been broadcast or commissioned (in this case worldwide format rights availability is a must).
Selection criteria: innovation, creativity / originality, potential to develop multiple series, potential to travel around the world as a format, potential to become cross-media and multiplatform format, to be non-scripted entertainment format.
“For several years, Ukraine imported a phenomenal number of formats from abroad. But now, the winds have changed as we embark on finding the most exciting format ideas out there from the most creative minds in the region. We’re looking forward to seeing unique, original and fan-damn-tastic entries in the unscripted genres which have strong international potential. The winner will receive a distribution deal with Small World IFT, a promo and development resources, ready to launch the format to the world at MIPCOM 2015”, - Tim Crescenti, President Small World IFT |
