MIPCOM Spotlight: Band Content Distribution

CANNES: Brazil-based Band Content Distribution arrives at MIPCOM hoping to strengthen its relationships with existing customers while attracting new partnerships by offering content for different platforms.

Among the highlights is Wacky TV, a cartoon spoof on popular network fare featuring parodies of news broadcasts, talk shows and even infomercials. Additionally, the company is presenting the travel series 50 x 1, featuring an entire season focused on cities that have hosted the Olympics. The animated show Skivvy Man, about an antihero who charges to help people, is targeted to young adults. “We are bringing Brazilian productions with great diversity and style,” says Elisa Ayub, Band’s director of international content. “That’s what makes us a television company ready to attend to a variety of requests.”

Ayub adds, “We want to establish Band Content Distribution…as a major reference point in the international content-distribution business.”
