About me:
MercuryMedia was set up to develop and distribute factual programming for the international television market. In six years it has become a recognised source for high quality series, entertainment magazines and one offs. Its catalogue has attracted the programming of some of the worlds leading production companies.
What sets Mercury apart from its rivals is its ability to match the best programming to the most appropriate broadcaster. Put simply we make it our business to know what broadcasters want and how producers can provide it.
Whether its ideas at treatment stage where we have the skills to co-develop proposals into commissionable properties, or finished programmes where we are hired to distribute, we put passion and dedication into our task.
We are only interested in high quality factual programmes. We prefer series but will consider exceptional single documentaries. We are selective about who we work with but are keen to develop new as well as proven talent.
Our clients include the UK majors, top-end US broadcasters and leading international networks. All our programmes have international appeal and are subject driven.
Our producer clients include Michael Hoff Productions, DCTV, Coal River Pictures, DTT Documentaries, Babalu Pictures, Louder Than Words, Storyteller Productions, CTVC, Globalvision, Les Films Grain de Sable and Insight News TV. We also regularly teach development skills to established and aspiring producers with the Documentary Filmmakers Group.
Recent successs include LOOSE CHANGE 2nd EDITION, the world's most downloaded film receiving more than 20,000 downloads per day, THE HARLEM GLOBETROTTERS, sold to over 40 territories, EMMY nominated documentary THE COLOUR OF OIL, Danny Schechters award winning, WMD: WEAPONS OF MASS DECEPTION, VICTIM 0001, a 9/11 special for ITV, THE KURSK: A SUBMARINE IN TROUBLED WATERS, which was the highest ever rated documentary in a Friday night slot in France, with over 4million viewers.
For 2006 we are making a concerted acquisitions drive and are actively looking for more producers to work with. Our most recent partners include Coal River Pictures, DTT Documentaries and Babalu Pictures and we look forward to fruitful relationships with all of them.
Projects in development include CHOIR SCHOOL: a six part series on the workings of Westminster Abbey Choir School - THE HISTORY OF SHOWBIZ: a 10 part series, in association with 3BM TV - THRILLER SCIENCE: A look at the science behind the worlds biggest blockbuster novels - HEX OR HOAX: A game show involving strange and bizarre true and false stories.

Who I'd like to meet:
Passionate and innovative documentary filmmakers with strong, contextualised stories, with a good narrative. We want films which would appeal to viewers and cinema-goers from the four corners of the globe.
As a Film & TV distributor and co-producer, we would be keen to discuss the availability of your films for an international audience. We would encourage you to think whether as a viewer, your project is the kind of thing you and your cirlce of friends and family would like to watch.
All films and TV programmes that are presented to us, will need to have all rights cleared. That includes all footage, music and contributors. We require separate master material, M&E (music & effects tracks), time coded scripts, full and short form synopses, digital images, music cue sheets, all press available material.
