Landline TV

CEO, Jared Neumark, will talk about the challenges of 24 hour high production value video and the potential benefits to being that timely. He will also demo some of their independently produced sketches and give us a look inside their New York-based production company that specializes in comedy. Landline has been written up in a number of major blogs and media outlets, being called “brilliant” (Andrew Sullivan), “well-done satire” (Washington Post), “smart, witty” (CNBC), and “pants-wettingly funny” (Huffington Post). In May 2009, Wired named Landline TV as one of seven “Webotainers Worth Watching”. Landline’s creative team also develops content for web serials, television and film, as well as offering professional services for branded content and advertising.

Mobcaster

Co-Founders, Aubrey Levy and Sander Kooijman, will discuss their website, mobcaster.com, the first-ever crowd-funded television channel who helps independent TV creators take their show concepts directly out to market, giving the audience, as opposed to network or studio executives, the ability to decide which shows end up on their screens.  If viewers like a show, they can fund it, and those shows with sufficient support to reach their funding goals, get made and broadcast on Mobcaster TV (online channel).  It creates the first and only independent market for TV shows.
