FA L L 2 0 1 1 P R O G R A M S A L E S C ATA LO G { Where the World Meets Entertainment } INTRODUCTION Discovery Enterprises International returns to MIPCOM 2011 with a continued passion to satisfy curiosity. With over 1,400 hours of original HD programming available for license, DEI is proud to present our Fall Program Sales catalog. Available for pre-sale or coproduction opportunities, the series Rock Stars of Urban Art follows Hadnet and Lars as they travel the world in search of the finest graffiti artists. Join these urban visionaries as they explore the street art scenes and challenge the local artists to create graffiti paintings that are just as gritty and avant-garde as they are themselves. Venture to Puerto Rico, New York, LA and Paris as they meet with local artists, musicians, and celebrities that inspire and commission these amazing works of art. From the visionary mind behind Blade Runner and Alien, comes Prophets of Science Fiction which reveals the secrets of the uncanny vision of science fiction’s founding fathers. Episodes include an intimate look into the minds of legendary figures including Isaac Asimov, Gene Roddenberry and Jules Verne to examine how their work often inspired future discoveries decades before they took place. Nicolas Bonard Senior Vice President Discovery Enterprises International ROCK STARS OF URBAN ART PROPHETS OF SCIENCE FICTION 6 X 60 PRODUCED BY FMP MALOMA GmBH / 2012 8 X 60 PRODUCED BY SCOTT FREE / 2010 Hadnet and Lars travel the globe to track down and challenge the world’s best graffiti artists. Hadnet, a TV presenter and radio DJ, knows the ins and outs of the graffiti scene while Lars, an artist in his own right, has published a book about graffiti art. Together, the duo go off the beaten path to track down young, sizzling artists in six cities worldwide. At each location, they have only four days to find and persuade the best local graffiti artists, celebrities and local urban design icons to take part in their unique Graffiti Project. What once was just imagination is now real; what was once the distant future is now around the corner. The science of the future was strangely prophesied by a group of authors, illustrators, filmmakers and scientists whose dreams once may have deemed them renegades and mad scientists. Prophets of Science Fiction is a biographical exploration of eight science fiction visionaries, including Arthur C. Clarke, HG Wells and Isaac Isimov, and how their early predictions eerily predicted the future. In addition to the compelling content available from our Discovery Networks, DEI is also the exclusive distributor of nearly 130 hours of 20th-century history programming from Russia 1 and TV Cultura. We invite you to stop by the booth to meet with one of our sales directors to learn more. {Rock Stars of Urban Art} Discovery Enterprises International (DEI) serves as the streamlined access point for all of Discovery Communications’ international program and private networks sales, co-financing opportunities, as well as consumer products and licensing in markets outside the United States.
