The format should be &#8220;innovative, original, be able to travel, be returnable and creatively distinctive.&#8221; The deadline for entries is March 18.<\/p>\n<p>Five finalists will pitch at the Celtic Media Festival on April 21. The winner will be decided by a panel that includes Adrian Lynch, channel controller of RT\u00c9 One; Janet Frawley, head of formats at RT\u00c9; Petter Wallace, head of commissioning at NRK; and Unni \u00d8deg\u00e5rd, commissioning editor for independents at NRK. The panel is to be adjudicated by Michelle Spillane, director of RT\u00c9 Global.<\/p>\n<p>The winning entrant of the Format Farm Development Pitch will pitch channel controllers at RT\u00c9 and NRK with a sizzle reel and treatment (they will have ten weeks from the end of the festival to prepare their pitch materials).<\/p>\n<p>Petter Wallace, head of commissioning at NRK, said: &#8220;We in NRK are thrilled to be working with RT\u00c9 on the format competition. In the future, public-service broadcasters, particularly in smaller countries, need to cooperate more to create great content. Hopefully we will develop ideas through this competition that enrich the output for audiences both in Norway and Ireland, perhaps open up opportunities for production companies in both countries to broaden the market for their ideas.&#8217;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DUBLIN\/OSLO: NRK is working with RT\u00c9 to offer funding for an &#8220;impactful&#8221; format that can be made for both the Norwegian and Irish marketplaces.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":290,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[243,244,245],"class_list":["post-4749","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","","category-top-stories","tag-format-farm-development-pitch","tag-nrk","tag-rte","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Irish, Norwegian Broadcasters Partner on Format Development - TVFORMATS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/irish-norwegian-broadcasters-partner-on-format-development\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Irish, Norwegian Broadcasters Partner on Format Development - TVFORMATS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"DUBLIN\/OSLO: NRK is working with RT\u00c9 to offer funding for an &quot;impactful&quot; format that can be made for both the Norwegian and Irish marketplaces.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/irish-norwegian-broadcasters-partner-on-format-development\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVFORMATS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2016-02-23T16:09:27+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2016-02-23T16:14:13+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"http:\/\/worldscreen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Mansha Daswani\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Mansha Daswani\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/irish-norwegian-broadcasters-partner-on-format-development\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/irish-norwegian-broadcasters-partner-on-format-development\/\",\"name\":\"Irish, Norwegian Broadcasters Partner on Format Development - TVFORMATS\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2016-02-23T16:09:27+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2016-02-23T16:14:13+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#\/schema\/person\/83da304c8bad8bfdb3edd7eb47cfe5ad\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/irish-norwegian-broadcasters-partner-on-format-development\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/irish-norwegian-broadcasters-partner-on-format-development\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/irish-norwegian-broadcasters-partner-on-format-development\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Irish, Norwegian Broadcasters Partner on Format Development\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/\",\"name\":\"TVFORMATS\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#\/schema\/person\/83da304c8bad8bfdb3edd7eb47cfe5ad\",\"name\":\"Mansha Daswani\",\"description\":\"Mansha Daswani is the editor-in-chief and associate publisher of World Screen.
