BBC Studios announced its first-ever, virtual Showcase, a three-day programme of events running from 22-24 February 2021.
The all-new, fully immersive experience will also be the 45th BBC Studios Showcase, an annual event that brings together international buyers from around the world to experience, acquire, and partner on premium content from BBC Studios and UK independent producers.
“It’s simply not fair to ask our clients and partners to travel during these uncertain times so we are going to pull out all the stops to give them the full Showcase experience from the comfort of their home locations. BBC Studios Showcase is known for the scale of its ambition and the skill of its execution so you can imagine the fun we’re going to have reimagined this market as a virtual event. You will not want to miss it,” said Paul Dempsey, president, Global Distribution, BBC Studios.
Innovative, cutting-edge technology will bring customers closer to scripted, unscripted, and formats content than ever before. The exclusive, invitation-only event will offer buyers the chance to meet and hear from some of the world’s top program-makers and key commissioners about their very latest projects. Production panels will offer unique insights into the making of the newest shows, there will be the chance to see the very latest footage, straight from the cutting room as well as full-length screenings and new promos.
BBC Studios will also offer customers extensive access to the content pipeline, industry-leading insight into the latest trends and audience behavior from market experts, and a bespoke co-production forum.
Among the new shows premiering at BBC Studios Showcase is This is Going to Hurt, Adam Kay’s own adaptation of his international best-selling memoir of the same name starring Ben Whishaw. Also debuting at Showcase is The Green Planet from BBC Studios Natural History Unit.
