Want to Pitch a Show?

Do you have a great idea for a TV or radio show?

Today at noon at the CBC Building in Toronto, Chris Straw, manager of in-house productions and Chris Boyce, the programming director of CBC Radio are holding a seminar on the inner workings of CBC Radio program development.

If you’ve always thought you had a great idea for a radio or TV show this seminar may be for you. The discussion will be held on the ground floor of the atrium near the front street entrance of the CBC building in Toronto. Seating is on a first come, first serve basis.

Unfortunately, I don’t think there are plans to stream the seminar online, however if I find I link I’ll post it here.

    Today?
    At noon?
    In Toronto?
    No stream or online presence?

    Clearly you are not speaking to me –I’m not in Toronto.
    This kind of approach fuels the frustration….

    fogcutter, I know. I was hoping they’d post a link or something. Apologies to all the non-Toronto people. However the segment was taped, so I’m hoping they package it online.

    I hope so too. Thank you very much for the reply.

    aw, you should have told us earlier. I come on this blog just now and found that something like this has already happened… :(



    Paul Mcgrath says:

    I want to pitch a show – I have a fabulous idea for a show – tell me when & where CBC is taking pitches… (if ever)…



    Paul Mcgrath says:

    Stephen, you can pitch at any time, although the fall/winter is best. See the details here: http://www.cbc.ca/pitch/
