United Kingdom? : Citizen London (More4/Channel4)

  • Riffy Ahmed
This is a 3 minute taster tape produced by Man Down Productions for a 3 part series called 'United Kingdom?: Citizen London which looks to explore whether London should become an independent state as well as other issues that effect the UK in a tongue and cheek, satirical manner yet presenting thought provoking questions for the audience to consider.
This was part of the 4Talent - 3 Minutes Project.
This is specially designed for Channel 4 during Global Entrepreneurs week, which takes fourteen candidates on the journey to understand the Media Industry from within an organisation and going it alone as an Entrepreneur.
During the entire week of November 10th - November 17th 2012
Following on the from the success of the 2011 pilot project ‘For 3 Minutes’ and as part of Channel 4's Global Entrepreneurship Week, People Development at Channel 4 in association with Carve Productions offered a very rare opportunity for fourteen individuals to take part in 'For 3 Minutes' a project that will explored whether individuals are best suited working within the Media Industry in the traditional sense of working their way up as they learn within an organisation like Channel 4 or to become a Media Entrepreneur and set up on their own. This was done in a very unique and practical way in offering the individuals involved the opportunity to take a brief from a Channel 4 Commissioner and create an idea for a programme which has multi-platform elements for TV Broadcast, Online and Social Media Outlets.
