MIPCOM Spotlight: dick clark productions international

CANNES: The comedic unscripted series Fail Army, which is packed with bloopers, and Now That’s Funny, featuring viral videos, are two of the titles that dick clark productions (DCP) international will be speaking to buyers about at the market.

“The unscripted comedy clip shows appeal to broadcasters worldwide because of the ability to customize according to territory,” says Bob Kennedy, the company’s senior VP of sales and acquisitions, highlighting the option to re-narrate, add graphics or a host. “Everyone can have fun with and relate to capturing laugh-out-loud moments on video.”

DCP international also has the format rights for Virtuosos, a talent show for classical musicians. The company’s catalog contains a number of annual awards shows, as DCP is producing the 74th Golden Globes, 44th Annual American Music Awards and 20th Hollywood Film Awards.
