GENERAL INFORMATION

> Looking for coproducers for new material

Anaid presently has three co-prodcutions in active development (MOW, series, feautre), and believe it is the future of film and television production, particularly on projects of sizable budget and quality.

> Options material

We have optioned feature film scripts, and continue to be on the look-out for quality projects that fit the company's taste and mandate to produce engaging and positive film and television.

> Hires writers, directors, segment producers, not necessarily represented

We hire and/or commission all three for both our documentary/lifestyle and dramatic streams of production.

> Opening to working with emerging writers, directors, producers

Open, in as far as they have braodcaster approval, which many of them will require. That said, we will option feature scripts, for example, that require no broadcaster attachment from emerging writers. Likewise, providing there is some producing experience in a person's background, we would hire an emerging producer as such if s/he brought us a concept for a doc/lifestyle series we loved.

INTERESTS

Types of Programming:

Children and Youth, Documentaries - Series, Drama Feature Length, Drama MOWs, Drama Series, Game Shows

We have had great success with documentary series and children's series, and this year we are moving into producing dramatic MOW's, primetime series and feature films.

Length of Programs:

Short films of varying lengths, Half hour programs, One hour programs, Ninety minutes or more

We prefer not to produce "one-off's" so all half hour and one hour programs would fall under the mantle of "series" (either doc or drama). Ninety minutes or more would constitute MOW's or feature films.

Broad Subjects of Interest:

Adventure, Comedy, Cooking shows, Crime & Mystery, Health, Humanities, Lifestyle, Medical, Music & Arts, Nature, Reality, Religion, Romance, Science, Travel

All of the above apply, providing they fall within documentary series, feature or series drama, or game show genres

Specifically Looking For:

As a company made up entirely of women, we are always particularly interested in those stories with a strong or interesting female lead and/or perspective. That said, we presently have a couple of very "boy-oriented" projects in the pipeline (!) so though we like those female oriented stories, we do not discriminate.
