PLANNING - Institutions

There are many intuitions that produce children's TV programmes like the one we aim to produce. The BBC have a subsidiary called CBBC which produce many children's TV programmes with the same age range of ours, (7-11) The British Broadcasting Corporation, (BBC) is a British public service broadcaster headquarter at Broadcasting House in the City of Westminster, London. It has been around since 1927, although stopping for a few years because of the war. The BBC has around 23,000 staff. It's main responsibility is to provide public service broadcasting in the United Kingdom, Channel Islands and the Isle of Man. The BBC's work is funded by annual television licence fee, which is charged to all British households, or anyone using any type of live television broadcasts. Because the BBC is publicly funded, there are rules which govern what they can do, and their programmes are made for the consumers education and entertainment.

One of the programmes made by CBBC which can be an example of what they produce which is similar to our is Bear Behaving Badly, which can be seen through the link below.




Another company which produces similar products like ours is ITV, know as the Independent Television Authority. Launched in 1955, it is the oldest commercial network in the UK. The difference between ITV and BBC is ITV get there funding for programmes through advertising, which means they rely on the consumer for funding. Advantages of this is they get to advertise other products of theirs through their programmes, encouraging the audience to go out and buy them.  ITV have subsidiary called TV ARK, which produce similar products to ours, with the same age range. http://www2.tv-ark.org.uk/childrens/itv_m-r.html.
