PIXEL BROTHERS at NATPE

We can share our smarts. Do you have a program you want to pitch but don't know how to do it?
Recently we acted as Producers Rep for the Pixel Brothers in Chicago. We consulted on their marketing materials, talking points,
market research and set up meetings with programmers and agents.
This winter we pitched five shows at NAPTE, Discovery Channel and Fine Living. One travel show is currently in development with a major cable network,
while two are in development with top agents. More on this when we can make it official.

THE AMERICAN INQUISITION: Justice and Injustice in the Cold War
A Documentary Series
Hosted by Stanley I. Kutler
"Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it." George Santayana
It has happened here. In this post 9/11 era of government restrictions, The Patriot Act,
abuse of prisoners at Abu Ghraib, and prisoners held at Guatanamo Bay, it is vital to
remember these cases from the recent past. Our own government actively worked to suppress
individual civil rights and personal liberties. Stanley Kutler asks: How far will the
American government go to restrict individual liberties?
Sample shows:
"TOKYO ROSE" Iva Ikuko Toguri d'Aquino, an American-born woman who broadcast
from Radio Tokyo to Allied troops in the Pacific throughout the war, was arrested in October
1945 after the fall of Japan. Although d'Aquino's story would never vary, she became a pawn
of relentless persecutors who mounted pressure to enlist both ambitious and timid bureaucrats
in her persecution. She became a symbolic sacrifice for their energies and fears.
"CRAZY LIKE A POET" A towering figure of 20th century literature, Ezra Pound
was a notorious Fascist and anti-Semite. Indicted for treason in 1945 for broadcasting for
the enemy during World War II, he was never tried. Judged insane and unfit to stand trial in
1946, he was incarcerated in St. Elizabeth's Hospital in Washington for almost thirteen years.
Long-suppressed government files demonstrate Pound was not insane.
"AMERICAN RED" Harry Bridges was a prominent, powerful, controversial labor
leader. The government waged a vociferous battle to deport him as a dangerous alien radical.
He endured court trials, Congressional hearings, repeated investigations and two deportation
proceedings, beginning in the 1930s through the 1950s - and won them all.
