Programme Exchange Catalogue
Please do not post on this thread until your show has been accepted on the Arts & Culture thread!
Culture – set of shared attitudes, values, goals, and practices that define a group of people, such as the people of a particular region.
The International Broadcasting Alliance’s Arts and Culture Division is dedicated to promote, enhance, and develop home-grown film and television broadcasting, showcasing the talents of our member broadcasters and expanding their internal markets.
Currently, the Arts and Culture Division operates the Programme Exchange Catalogue, where broadcasters and channels can display their shows for broadcasting and purchasing in distinct markets. The Programme Exchange Catalogue will also work towards establishing special awards and commissions sponsored by the Arts and Culture Division to reward and encourage quality programming towards our Television Arts & Sciences Awards, to be held later during the year. For this reason, any program first broadcast by any Full IBA member is automatically considered for any grants and/or awards sponsored by the Arts & Culture Division unless this is explicitly rejected.
CATALOGUE FORMS
When you have been accepted on the Arts & Culture thread, you must go into more detail about your show in the Programme Exchange thread. Broadcasters from across the Mutliverse will then be able to contact you about broadcasting your show in their nation. Alternatively, you are free to TG nations/contact them on Twitter or on the Arts & Culture thread to accept the rights to broadcast their show.
You will be able to find examples below these forms by Britonisea - keep scrolling! Also, please gain permission before adding random broadcasters under the "Broadcasting Your Show" information!
Below are three different types of forms. Please make sure that you are filling in the correct form;
Fictional Shows
If your show is fictional (ie there is a scriptwriter who creates ideas and there is an overall narrative arc that has a beginning, climax and end) this is the form that you must fill out. Great examples of this are telenovelas, multi-season dramas such as Game of Thrones or short 3-10 episode one-off dramas. This can also apply to soap operas such as Neighbours and EastEnders. One could argue shows such as The Only Way is Essex could also be put here as it is highly dramaticised.
NOTE: Wherever there is [text in square brackets], unless it is code, please make sure you catch all of them and fill them out accordingly.

Non-Fictional Shows
If your show is non-fictional (ie it responds to real-life current events, there is not a set script) this is the form that you must fill out. Great examples of this are music competitions such as The X Factor or Melodifestivalen or documentaries. You are allowed to have episodic breakdowns which you can snatch from the form above and put it at the end of this form. Though you don't have to go into a lot of detail as non-fictional shows usually have a lot of episodes that don't have much of a storyline.
