On the Brink of an International Break-Through - Ambition and Unique Focus Pays Off

MediaConcerns newly formed creative team, spearheaded by Reinout te Brake as creative director, is guiding the company rapidly into ambitious international partnerships focusing on sponsored and cross media formats. Recently released cross media formats like The Wedding Planners, Cupidos Eyes, The Interrogation, The Stake and The Swindler have drawn international interest. These formats combines feel-good TV with an edgy twist, covering upright sentiments and enabling the audience to actively participate and steer the outcome of the show.
