TV AND FILM INDUSTRY 3

RESEARCH INTO THE BBC AND A FILM COMPANY.


COFFEE FILMS:

Coffee Films first came into being in 1996 as an underground collective of friends, artists and musicians living around Kent. Working with an array of cheap S-VHS and Hi-8 consumer camcorders and editing tape to tape the group made a wide range of largely experimental films and videos on zero-budgets. Almost 20 years later and Coffee Films is a well established British independent film production company which has screened worldwide, won critical acclaim and reached into seven figure budget film-making.

Public Service Broadcasting:

In the UK the term "public service broadcasting" refers to broadcasting which is intended for the public and will benefit rather than for purely commercial concerns. The communications regulator Of-com requires that certain television and radio broadcasters fulfill certain requirements as part of their licence to broadcast.
