The Janson Media Wishlist, January 2012

At the moment we are looking for feature docs, movies, specials, and series to release during the Winter/Spring 2012 market cycle, including NATPE and the Realscreen Summit in Miami (January), the World Content Market in Prague (February), DISCOP EAST in Budapest (June), and primarily MIPTV 2012 in Cannes (April).

Don’t hesitate to contact us if you are have something great and unique in any genre, but we are especially looking the following:

Current affairs and social issues specials and series, including feature-length documentaries on a wide range of subjects… specific issues and stories we are looking for:

• Exploitation of natural resources, eco-warriors, environmental pollution, eco-disasters
• Natural foods and farming vs. corporate “frankenfoods”
• Human rights
• Media manipulation of public opinion/ government or corporate censorship
• War crimes
• CIA, NSA, spying, assassinations, conspiracy theories, computer hacking, coup d’etats
• Illegal immigration
• Sex trafficking
• Death penalty stories (innocent convicts)
• Xenophobia, extremism
• Gun-control, weapons, crime
• Manhunt for Nazi war criminals
• World food and water crises

We are also looking to expand our collection of feature films for families and kids — they don’t need recognizable stars (although that always helps) but they do need M&E tracks, and should tell classic stories that will appeal to families and children.  We are also looking for feature films based on true stories, including dramatized biographies of famous people. And we are always in the market for natural history and wildlife, and travel, and lifestyle content.

Finally, we are acquiring quality 3D films, documentaries and television series.
