We are heading into our first-ever pilot season! From October 15th to October 31st, three new channels will premiere three episodes each. Here's what's coming:
History Pop dives into the histories that inform pop culture. Deep inside the histories depicted in our favorite shows, games, and movies are memories that we’ve created for ourselves. The pilot episodes discuss topics like cursing and the evolution of language in HBO’s Deadwood and the historical context and motivations behind the the Chernobyl miniseries.
Stories Retold uses fairy tales and fables to teach empathy. Each classic story relates to the modern world, allowing viewers to connect with the characters and apply the morals to their everyday lives. The videos are safe to use in elementary school classrooms, and are appealing to viewers of all ages. The beautiful visuals make this perfect leanback entertainment for anyone who enjoys immersive and relevant stories.
Hashed Out seeks to help viewers better understand their place in the media landscape by demonstrating how to navigate through journalism and social media narratives. Episodes cover topics like how journalism contributed to the measles outbreak, how presidential elections turned into fantasy football, and whether music reviews matter in an era of digital streaming and social media.
At the end of this pilot season, we will assess the public reception to each channel and determine which to continue producing. So subscribe now, hit the notification bells, and get ready to part of this exciting launch!
