TURNER SERVES UP NEW BOURDAIN AND SPURLOCK SERIES AT MIPTV 2013

CANNES (8 April, 2013) – Turner International Asia Pacific’s syndication arm, Turner Content Solutions, has secured the rights to distribute two new documentary series from CNN, Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown, and Morgan Spurlock’s Inside Man.

Lifestyle series Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown (16 x 60′- season 1 & 2) is hosted by the globally-acclaimed chef and TV personality. The series follows the Emmy Award winning world-traveller Bourdain as he takes viewers on a global trip, celebrating diverse cultures by exploring their cuisine and dining rituals. His acerbic wit, intellectual curiosity and candour make him an entertaining host, as he leads the expedition off the beaten path, even venturing into war-torn parts of the world. Along the way he meets colourful locals, occasionally communing with other internationally lauded chefs in places such as Libya, Columbia, Myanmar, Peru and the Congo.

Inside Man (8 x 60′) demonstrates that you can’t ever truly understand something from the outside, leading Morgan Spurlock to immerse himself in diverse cultures, in a series that explores some of the ‘hot button’ topics of our age. With an award-winning reputation for putting himself at the centre of the story – no matter what the risk to his personal safety or health – Morgan Spurlock is the ideal host, using his journalistic nous he connects with the people behind the headlines to get to the human heart of the story. Be it the harsh reality of living through the global recession, how guns have become such a divisive subject for so many, or new thinking around controversial medical topics such as caring for our aging populations, or the use of marijuana to ease chronic pain of the seriously ill, the star of Super Size Me is taking his unique style of storytelling to the next level.

Grace Chan, Executive Director, Syndication, Turner International Asia Pacific commented, “We are really excited to be representing these fantastic new CNN series in Asia Pacific. The original content that these two award-winning hosts present will enhance our lifestyle and factual portfolio from our catalogue, and will have both audiences absorbed and buyers enthralled. Some buyers have already expressed interest in them and we are expecting more to come this week at MIPTV.”

About Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown (16 x 60′ – seasons 1 & 2)
As he explores, he seeks out memorable personalities, and the places that help define the International cultural landscape. For Tony, food is always the entry point. In the world of a cook, an understanding and appreciation of how others eat is akin to discovering secret societies and cryptic subcultures. Through the series Tony tackles new and more challenging locations: travelling to post-war Libya, goes farther off the beaten path in Myanmar, explores Punjab and the Tangier of Burrows and Bowles, as well as taking a unique perspective on Los Angeles, Tokyo, Spain and Copenhagen. And as he has always done, Tony brings an intellectual curiosity, empathy, wit and a boundless appetite to every location he visits.

About Morgan Spurlock’s Inside Man (8 x 60′)
You can’t ever truly understand something from the outside, that’s why Morgan Spurlock goes inside; immersing himself in the cultures that make up this country and exploring the most pressing issues of the day. Morgan Spurlock is the Inside Man. With an award-winning reputation for putting himself at the centre of the story – with no regard for the risk to his personal safety or health – Morgan Spurlock is the perfect host, exploring some of the ‘hot button’ topics of our age. By using his journalistic talents, Spurlock connects with the people behind the headlines to get to the human heart of the story – be it the harsh day-to-day reality of living through the global recession, how guns have become such a divisive subject for so many, or new thinking around controversial medical topics like how we care for our aging populations in the west and the use of marijuana to ease chronic pain amongst patients with cancer, MS and other serious illnesses. The star of Super Size Me is taking his unique style of storytelling to the next level.

SPT Networks Unveils Second Screen App 
to Accompany International Premieres of Hannibal
Synchronising live to broadcasts around the world

Singapore, 08 April 2013 – Sony Pictures Television (SPT) Networks has unveiled a custom second screen viewing app to accompany the premiere of their hotly anticipated drama, Hannibal, which it co-commissioned for its global portfolio of channels. Developed by SPT Networks’ digital arm, the Hannibal app will initially be made available in local languages to accompany the series on AXN channels serving Spanish-speaking Latin America, Brazil, pan Asia, Spain and Portugal. It will be the first scripted second screen app in several territories. In Asia, Hannibal will premiere on Monday, 8 April at 10pm in the Philippines and on Tuesday, 9 April, across East Asia at 10pm (SG, MY, HK)/ 9pm (JKT).

SPT’s second screen Hannibal app will synchronise to each episode as it airs live, and also use audio watermarking technology that will trigger it to synchronise during any DVR and VOD playback. The app will be available through iTunes for all iOS mobile phones and tablets to accompany international premieres on AXN channels from April 2013.

Users will be able to access exclusive Hannibal content, learn more about characters, watch relationships unfold and access behind-the-scenes footage. Integrated social media elements will enable viewers to interact directly with the show and other fans in a hosted Hannibal community.

Eric Berger, executive vice president, digital networks at SPT, said: “SPT’s second screen Hannibal app will be a first for drama series in many markets, breaking new ground for pay TV. Hannibal is bursting with additional material and storylines that enrich the viewer experience through this app and which, thanks to the technology now available, we can synchronise live to any schedule, anytime.”

“Hannibal is tailor-made for this kind of real-time digital experience, said Marie Jacobson, executive vice president programming and production, networks for SPT. “We feel strongly the deep mythology and intricate character weaves of our series will drive core fans of the genre to seek out our app and engage at new levels.”

Hannibal is a new 13 part series based on the world-renowned mythology and infamous character portrait of Dr Hannibal Lecter from the Thomas Harris horror novels. The chilling series takes viewers back to the beginning and introduces two of fiction’s most enigmatic characters for the first time. The programme stars Hugh Dancy (The Big C, Confessions of a Shopaholic, King Arthur) as Will Graham, Mads Mikkelsen (Casino Royale, Clash of the Titans) as Hannibal Lecter and Laurence Fishburne (CSI, The Matrix) as Jack Crawford. The show is executive produced by Bryan Fuller (Heroes, Pushing Daisies, Dead Like Me) and directed by David Slade (Twilight Eclipse, 30 Days of Night, Awake pilot). David Slade and Martha de Laurentiis also executive produce.

Produced by Gaumont International Television in association with SPT Networks (through AXN Original Productions), Hannibal will premiere in April on SPT’s networks in 63 countries and in 18 languages around the globe. The series was also commissioned by NBC for the US market.

AZERSPACE-1 / AFRICASAT-1a Enters Commercial Service

measat123
Kuala Lumpur, 5 April 2013 – Azercosmos Joint Stock Company (“Azercosmos”), Azerbaijan’s commercial satellite operator, and MEASAT Satellite Systems (“MEASAT”) announced today that the AZERSPACE-1/AFRICASAT-1a satellite, launched on 7 February 2013 from the European Space Port in French Guiana, has successfully completed in-orbit testing and entered full commercial service.

With its advanced design and switching capabilities, AZERSPACE-1/AFRICASAT-1a is ready to provide communications services to customers in Azerbaijan, Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia. The satellite provides Ku-band capacity over Europe and Central Asia, and Cband capacity over Africa, Central Asia, the Middle East and Europe.

With an anticipated service life of more than 15 years, AZERSPACE-1/AFRICASAT-1a is based on Orbital’s flight-proven GEOStar-2 platform and was launched aboard an Ariane 5 by Arianespace. The hybrid C- and Ku-band satellite generates approximately 5 kilowatts of payload power and carries 36 active transponders. It operates from an orbital location at 46° East Longitude through an arrangement between Azercosmos and MEASAT, which holds the rights to the orbital slot.

Three years of close cooperation between MEASAT and Azercosmos culminated in this advanced satellite aimed to support Azercosmos’s objectives of launching the first national satellite which is to cover not only the territory of Azerbaijan, but also Central Asia and Europe. The satellite will also replace MEASAT’s AFRICASAT-1 satellite and expand MEASAT’s presence in Africa, the Middle East, Southern Europe and Southeast Asia. “MEASAT will use the AFRICASAT-1a payload to offer a full suite of satellite solutions across key markets in Africa and the Middle East,” said Paul Brown-Kenyon, MEASAT’s Chief Executive Officer.

With the AZERSPACE-1 payload, Azercosmos plans to deliver high-quality and reliable information and communications services not only to customers in Azerbaijan, but also to Central Asia and Europe, as well as parts of Africa and the Middle East.

About Azercosmos
Incorporated in 2010, Azercosmos is the premier satellite operator in both Azerbaijan and Caucasus. It provides satellite-delivered communication services and satellite platforms to broadcasting, broadband and government customers.

Azercosmos positions itself mainly as an operator with real presence in the region. It offers services in neighboring countries and neglected emerging markets, with a visible competitive advantage that stems mainly from its flexible transaction costs and common language with the principal players in the regional markets.

Azercosmos has also started its engagements and preparatory works for manufacturing, launch and insurance of the low-earth orbiting satellite in 2015 and plans are already in place for the second telecommunications satellite to be launched in 2016. At the same time, Azercosmos has commenced work on creation of a Universal Ground Control Station in Azerbaijan and receipt of high-resolution satellite images from other regional satellite operators to meet the demand for the optical and radar satellite imagery in the regional market.

Duck Dynasty quacks its way to HISTORY Asia this Month

AE_Networks_123
(4 April 2013, Singapore)- ‘Duck Dynasty’, the real-life series that has become the biggest-ever hit on A+E Networks in the US, is set to fly across Asia onto HISTORY™ channel this April.

The Season Three Premiere of ‘Duck Dynasty’ brought in a whopping 8.6 million total viewers in the U.S, with 5.0 million adults 18-49 and 4.9 million adults 25-54 – making it the #1 telecast in A+E Network history.

The show was also the most social show on television that night. According to Trendrr TV, Blufin Labs and Social Guide, the series had more total activity across all major social media platforms than any other telecast on television for the night, with both episodes ranking #1 and #2 ahead of ‘American Idol’.

Duck Dynasty features an eccentric Louisiana bayou family – The Robertsons – who turned a duck call invention into a multi-million dollar sporting empire despite their modest lifestyle and homes in the backwoods. In this household, even the most ordinary family affair is met with a special Robertson twist of downhome practicality and witty sense of humor.

“The Robertsons offer us a unique, off-the-wall family where tradition meets inventiveness and entrepreneurialism, born out of a passion for the age-old tradition of duck hunting. Duck Dynasty is a window into this slice of life in the Bayou – where squirrel pie is on the menu, camouflage is in the wardrobe, and mobile phones keep the business running from amongst the reeds. We are extremely excited to bring this phenomenal hit to HISTORY audiences across Asia” said Michele Schofield, Senior Vice President, Programming & Marketing at AETN All Asia Networks.

‘Duck Dynasty’ will be available to Singapore viewers when the first season premieres on 11 April on HISTORY™ (StarHub TV Ch 401), every Thursday with back to back episodes at 10pm and 10:30pm.

GeoMetWatch Partners with AsiaSat to Launch Advanced Severe Weather Payload

AsiaSat123
NORTH LOGAN, UTAH/HONG KONG, April 3, 2013 – Asia Satellite Telecommunications Company Limited (AsiaSat) and GeoMetWatch Corp today announced that the two companies have entered into a strategic partnership to host the first of six Sounding & Tracking Observatory for Regional Meteorology (STORMTM) instruments on board a new satellite planned to be launched by AsiaSat in 2016. 

“We are pleased to have reached this cooperation agreement with GeoMetWatch. We are excited to take part in this ground breaking project that will provide advanced data to improve weather forecasting, natural disaster monitoring and climate modeling. This new partnership with GeoMetWatch will open up new opportunities to expand our satellite services into new areas, and allow us to explore a new source of revenue for the company,” said William Wade, President and Chief Executive Officer of AsiaSat. 

“GeoMetWatch’s partnership with AsiaSat is a significant step towards the implementation of our global geostationary hyperspectral sounder constellation. The first STORM™ sensor will provide unprecedented atmospheric and weather data over Asia and the Pacific region, for which we have already had significant interest to purchase the data when available,” said David Crain, Chief Executive Officer of GeoMetWatch. “For the past 25 years, AsiaSat has been the preeminent satellite operator in Asia and we are pleased that our first STORM™ hyperspectral sounder will be hosted on their satellite.”

Planned for launch in 2016 and to be positioned at 122 degrees East, this new AsiaSat satellite will host the first hyperspectral STORM™ sensor that will collect and return to Earth sophisticated and critical weather data not currently available. This hyperspectral data will enable meteorologists to provide better daily forecasts, predict severe weather and atmospheric instability more accurately, and improve location and storm tracking and analysis of the intensity of hurricanes and typhoons, resulting in earlier evacuations that can improve the preservation of lives and property. 

“STORM™ will provide significantly earlier warning for severe weather and climate instability, and it will do so faster, more frequently and with finer detailed measurements than any capability in orbit today,” Crain said. 

The first STORM™ sensor is currently being manufactured by Utah State University’s Advanced Weather Systems. AWS is part of Utah State’s rich heritage of designing, building and testing state-of-the-art space based sensors. “AWS is thrilled to be a part of the GMW-AsiaSat partnership,” said Robert T Behunin, AWS Board Member and USU vice president for commercialization. “This unprecedented partnership and the activities that will come from it will revolutionize the weather sensor and data community; it will also provide a more efficient business model to secure and distribute weather data.” 

Partnering with Space Science and Engineering Center (SSEC) of University of Wisconsin for expertise in hyperspectral algorithm development and data processing, the GeoMetWatch system will provide high-resolution, visible and infrared images of atmospheric conditions as well as a complete set of quasi-continuous measurements that are high resolution in vertical, spatial and temporal dimensions. These include profiles of temperature, water vapor, pressure, clouds and wind, three-dimensional fields of aerosols, pollutants, and trace gases, volcanic ash and gases, weather instability, precipitation and flood forecasts, hurricane intensity and ground track, and other data. GeoMetWatch’s products and services will be available globally under an innovative fee-for-service data-buy model that enables its clients to meet their critical atmospheric data needs with increased accuracy, efficiency and affordability.

MTV Launches Season 2 of The MTV Show

viacom123
Hong Kong/Indonesia/Malaysia/Philippines/Singapore, 3 APRIL 2013 – MTV Asia today announced the return of its popular original series, The MTV Show, a weekly music and lifestyle show that features top-rated music videos, movies, celebrity news and popular culture, and now comes with a refreshed programming format that enables its millennial viewers to determine what goes on the show, through active social media engagement. The launch of the new season introduces the appointment of MTV’s latest VJ, Alan Wong who is already an experienced host and actor. Together with Hanli Hoefer, who was introduced a month ago, they form the new faces of the channel, who will get to interact with viewers through their social media platforms for the show. It premieres on Saturday, 20 April and airs on MTV SEA every Saturday at 10.00am (WIB), 11.00am (SG/HK/PH) and 12.00pm (MAL) with exclusive content available online at www.mtvasia.com/themtvshow.

Shot at the Waterfront Studio at Resorts World Sentosa, The MTV S­how’s returning brand partner, show highlights include:

The People’s Chart – a ‘democratic’ music selection voted online by viewers, who determine the chart movements and what gets played on the show

Social engagement with viewers through Instagram dedications and requests, where viewers with the most creative Instagram submission each week will be discussed and featured on the show, and stand to win prizes

Interaction with new VJs through Twitter and Facebook platforms where viewers’ questions get to be discussed on the show

Weekly web videos that feature not only backstage or behind-the-scenes footage with the VJs, sneak peeks, or artist footage, but include original web-only series around popular youth topics

The MTV Show marries substantial user-generated content with social media technologies to enable viewers to interact real-time with show hosts and each other anytime or anywhere they like. It is anchored by “The People’s Chart” and fans determine the music selection by going online at www.mtvasia.com/themtvshow to pick 10 songs from a bank of 100 songs over the past decade. As the VJs countdown to the number one song, they will present the latest movies, artist performances and interviews. Viewers are invited to tweet their burning questions to @themtvshow, send in Instagram dedications and requests to instagram.com/themtvshow, and the most creative submission wins prizes such as autographed merchandise, VIP access to the hottest events, and sponsored gifts. MTV retained the chart show format with song requests and dedications as these elements have remained popular with its audience.

The new season also sees the introduction of new MTV VJs Alan and Hanli. Alan wowed MTV with his multiple talents, youthful exuberance and witty antics. His cheeky grin, zany personality and effortless confidence make him impossible to resist. Born and raised in California, U.S., Alan knew at a young age that he wanted to be in the arts and entertainment industry. He has appeared in several film, theatre and TV productions, including an acting part in Hannah Montana and an on-air promotion for Ugly Betty, both well-known U.S. TV series. The combination of Alan’s natural hosting experience, and Hanli’s confidence from a fashion modelling background and spontaneous personality, led the show producers to build Season 2 around them. Besides allowing viewers to have their say, the show now gives the two new VJs the chance to write their own scripts and produce their own content on-air and online.

The launch marks the renewal of MTV’s collaboration with Resorts World Sentosa, which will see its brand partner leveraging on its understanding of the youths and receiving increased brand visibility on MTV’s platforms.

The MTV Show Season 2 will be shot at Resorts World Sentosa’s Waterfront Studio, a purpose-built TV studio located at the waterfront of the 49 hectare mega-resort. Fully treated for the best acoustic performance with state-of-the-art technology, and equipped with the latest in audio, lighting and full HD camera systems, the studio space is optimal for production recordings with a live audience.

Malaysia’s first and foremost mobile telecommunications provider, Celcom Axiata Berhad is also a sponsor for 26 episodes of The MTV Show.

Follow Alan on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Follow Hanli on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

*The MTV Show will air on MTV SEA every Sa turday starting from 20 April, 10am (WIB), 11am (SIN/HK/PH), 12pm (MAL).
