Zuku TV has announced it is planning to commission a new drama series for broadcast on the Zuku Afrika channel and is seeking producers who will help bring a fresh outlook to East African television content
The TV network is asking producers to send their ideas for a new series which would appeal to different audiences and have the ability to be understood by countries across the continent.
Zuku TV said the concept should have a strong theme, compelling plot, seamless continuity, unforgettable characters, a well-chosen setting, an appealing visual style and be entertaining, original, unique and fresh.
For producers in the East African region who want to be in with a chance of working on a new African television drama series, proposals should include: series synopsis; detailed treatment and approach; sample script for the first episode; production schedule; key production personnel; and preliminary budget.
The deadline for submissions is 31 March 2013 and applicants who have reached the next stage will be called to pitch their ideas.
Proposals should be sent to:
