Content Production Review

Creative content across genres and platforms

ITN is one of the most diverse and dynamic content creators in the world. We produce news, entertainment, factual and corporate programming for every media platform from television to online to mobile phones.

We operate at the forefront in developments in technology, production methods and creativity in news and all genres of factual content.

ITN Consulting has assisted a wide range of channels and production companies in the development of their content.

Our work covers a range of requirements including the development of a weekly programme grid, new programme and content concepts or the revamp of existing formats. We have worked across a range of genres from News and Sports to Lifestyle and Magazine shows.

Our Content Production Review offers clients an assessment of their current output, a plan for improvements and support to put that plan into action. We can help clients achieve greater on-air impact in editorial content, creative production, effective use of graphic elements, studio usage, set design, new technologies, and the work of on-screen talent.

Our expert team of operational consultants has extensive industry experience and is backed up by ITN’s internal expertise.

Our Approach

The Content Production Review is a three-step process: Assessment, Development and Implementation.

We deliver our initial findings after the Assessment step and then work with clients to form a Development Plan for their programmes. Our team will provide the Implementation Support to help clients put the plan into action.

1) Assessment

  • Understand programme objectives in terms of channel remit, business aims and audience demand/expectation through interviews with senior managers/commissioning editors, and review of audience data
  • Examine current output and that of market competitors
  • Define areas for improvement in current content
  • Identify areas where new formats may be developed

2) Development Plan

  • Devise improvement plan for current content
  • Work alongside client team in concept development of new formats
  • Devise multi-platform approaches
  • Assess impacts on production workflows
  • Define recruitment/training needs

3) Implementation Support

  • Project management of change process (e.g. set design, technology upgrade, or workflow changes)
  • Guide rehearsal process for new or refreshed shows
  • "Hand-holding" team through to go-live day
  • Training and mentoring of staff (click here for more details of our training services)
