What are some of your top properties for MIPTV? 
Dino Dan (26×30/52×11) is a CGI and live action adventure series that brings pre-historic dinosaurs to today. Ten year old Dan Henderson ("Dino Dan") uses his imagination to spin an everyday situation into a dinosaur adventure!
The Future Revealed (10×30) takes a spectacular look at the future of humanity through the 21st Century. State of the art CGI animation sequences and expert interviews, will show what could be in store for us as we cross the threshold of this brave new world.
Ghost Cases (13×30) is a brand new series ‘hunting’ the paranormal. Ghost Cases chronicles the investigations of some of the most haunted locations known.
In addition to these, we have new seasons in production for several of our existing series including Greatest Tank Battles, Less Than Kind, Jimmy 2 Shoes, Think Big and others.

Why will these programs appeal to buyers?
What kid doesn’t love dinosaurs? In Dino Dan we present a hugely entertaining and imaginary world and bring it to life with over 26 photorealistic Dinosaurs and kids everywhere will not only be entertained but will also learn more facts about the prehistoric species.
In the series The Future Revealed, as well as the companion series Countdown To The Future, viewers will have a first-hand look at exactly how the technologies of today and those of the future will impact and transform our lives. From a totally cash free society and microchips, to the future of sex and relationships, these programs offer insights never before seen.

What are your goals and expectations for MIPTV?
With the increasing frequency of the various markets now being merely weeks apart, it is always a challenge for distributors to ensure they are showcasing fresh content to buyers. Breakthrough is launching several new properties at this MIP and our ongoing goal is to offer Breakthrough’s own new productions as well as carefully selected third party properties to meet the needs of our various buyers and their viewers.
