About ITV
The market environment in which we operate is dynamic and constantly changing.
Consolidation of media and telecoms companies and the increasing influence of technology brings both challenges and opportunities that we believe we are able to respond to with pace and confidence.
Global demand for content continues to grow, with more channels, more platforms and new entrants increasing spend on high-quality programming. We estimate that the global content market is growing at around 5% per annum, with some genres such as drama growing faster than others.
This growth can be attributed to a number of factors, including: a larger international pay television market; the consolidation of pay providers with content companies and distributors coupled with the convergence in the television market, where telecom and new media companies are competing with traditional media companies for content and viewers; online players such as Netflix and Amazon investing heavily in new original content and archive; and online advertising driven platforms like YouTube and Facebook creating a new market for short form and digital content.
The US is by far the largest content market in the world, dominating the global production sector, with the UK the second largest market. This represents a significant opportunity for ITV Studios, which has a strong presence in both regions.
Demand for drama, particularly US drama, has increased significantly in the last few years. Original scripted content becomes brand defining for broadcasters and over-the-top (OTT) players in an increasingly competitive global environment. US studios continue to
dominate the market for drama in the US and internationally. However, the rise of Netflix and Amazon, who are investing heavily in creating high-quality original scripted content, has significantly increased competition in the market.
This increased competition for high-quality content has driven up the cost of production. Deficit financing has therefore become increasingly important in financing productions, where distributors are often funding the difference between what the content buyer is paying for the original broadcast and the cost of production, which is then covered by global sales, second-run windows and sales to OTT providers. ITV as a distributor as well as a producer is in a strong position to deficit finance its own productions and therefore produce high-quality content
and retain the rights to it.
Leveraging our network relationships and international distribution network, we are looking to expand our global scripted business and develop a strong portfolio of international and returning drama.
ITV America has developed several scripted programmes over the last few years and has a healthy pipeline of content in development. Our 2016 scripted deliveries included The Good Witch and Aquarius and scripted deliveries for 2017 are expected to include Sun Records, Somewhere Between, a pilot of Snowpiercer and the third series of The Good Witch.
In the UK, there is stronger demand and higher viewing figures for UK content over imported series. We are a major producer of scripted content and have further reinforced this position through our acquisitions of Mammoth Screen and Twofour Group in 2015. Our 2016 scripted deliveries in the UK included Victoria, Cold Feet, Poldark and Witness for the Prosecution. Scripted deliveries expected in 2017 include Prime Suspect 1973, Fearless, the second series of Victoria and the second series of Cold Feet, all of which have international appeal.
While not growing as quickly as scripted content, demand for non-scripted content remains strong as networks continue to require lower cost, high volume popular series. The UK remains the dominant producer of unique non-scripted formats. ITV significantly strengthened its capability in this area with the acquisition of Talpa Media in 2015. Along with the established entertainment and factual entertainment genres, scripted reality programming, where we have focused our US acquisitions, has grown quickly with formats such as Pawn Stars, Real Housewives and Fixer Upper.
ITV is now a genuine global player in non-scripted content, being a leading unscripted independent producer in the US and Europe as well as the largest commercial production company in the UK. The large independent production companies, such as Endemol Shine Group and Fremantle Media, continue to be ITV Studios' main competitors in non-scripted content.
Over recent years the number of ways to watch TV has greatly increased with viewers able to choose a variety of platforms, both
free and pay. Traditional linear television viewing remains resilient despite significant changes in the market and in the availability
and delivery of content. Viewing habits also vary by demographic with younger viewers watching more non-linear content than older
In the UK linear television viewing remains the most popular form of media entertainment despite year-on-year fluctuations. UK average
television viewing in 2016 was 212 minutes per day which is similar to 2015 (216 minutes) and a similar level to ten years ago (Source:
Non-linear viewing, while currently only a small proportion of total viewing, is growing fast, particularly via Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) services such as Netflix and Amazon, which have seen exponential growth over the last few years. We continue to invest in ITV's online offering, the ITV Hub, along with rolling out our SVOD service, BritBox in the US to enable us to compete in this market.
ITV competes for viewers with the BBC and commercial broadcasters including Channel 4, Sky and Channel 5. Over the last few years, the number of available channels has grown which has impacted the Share of Viewing (SOV) of the traditional broadcasters. SOV for the other
channels increased to 21.7% in 2016 from 21.1% in 2015. Despite an increase in the number of channels, ITV and BBC1 continue to be the only channels consistently able to deliver mass audiences as well as targeted demographics, and in 2016 ITV delivered 99% of all commercial audiences over five million viewers and 95% over three million. In 2016 the ITV family of channels increased their SOV to 21.4% (2015: 21.2%), second only to the BBC's family of channels at 31.9% which lost share during the year (2015: 32.7%) as a result of BBC3 moving online.
*Viewing data is based on Weeks 1-52 for 2016 compared to Weeks 2-53 for 2015.
Free-to-air television in the UK is delivered through services including Freeview, YouView and Freesat, while linear pay television is delivered through operators such as Sky, BT, Virgin and Talk Talk. The platform mix between free-to-air and traditional linear pay television has remained constant for a number of years at around 50:50. Linear pay television revenues continue to grow but the market dynamics are changing rapidly as established pay television providers such as Sky and Virgin face increasing competition from relatively new entrants to the market such as BT, Netflix and Amazon.
Increasingly homes are supplementing their free television with other forms of paid content including SVOD services such as Netflix, or by purchasing additional channels through 'no-contract' providers such as Now TV or Talk Talk TV Store. Around 30% of homes in the UK have an SVOD service and this is weighted towards those homes that have linear pay TV (Source: BARB). Including SVOD pay services, the platform mix in the UK is roughly 40% free-to-air and 60% paid viewing.
ITV participates in the pay television market, earning revenue from various third parties, including Sky and Virgin, through the licensing
of channels and content. ITV also has its pay only television channel, ITV Encore, on the Sky platform along with our other pay channels, ITV2 HD, ITV3 HD and ITV4 HD.
ITV also recently announced the creation of a joint venture with the BBC to launch BritBox, a new SVOD service in the US. The service
offers a significant amount of content from both broadcasters and gives ITV access to the fast growing SVOD market in the US.
The platform mix in the UK is roughly 50% free-to-air and 50% linear pay TV.
Non-linear viewing of long-form content includes recorded, or timeshifted viewing (up to 28 days) and catch-up of live television (linear television - up to 7 days), and also encompasses Video on Demand (VOD) and OTT delivery of other long-form content such as box sets and movies.
While non-linear viewing has grown fast it still accounts for a small proportion of total viewing time. In the UK we estimate 81% of all
viewing of legal long-form content is live (including simulcast), with a further 12% timeshifted via a Personal Video Recorder (PVR) and watched within 28 days of the original broadcast date. Of the estimated 7% of content viewed on demand, 3% is catch-up viewing of broadcaster content via the television set or to other devices such as tablets and mobiles. The remaining 4% of content is other VOD viewing, where viewing of box sets via services such as Netflix is replacing viewing of DVDs. This is growing quickly driven by increased availability of devices such as smartphones, tablets and connected televisions.
There is currently no industry measure for online viewing. BARB are in the process of developing a joint-industry, audited measure of viewing online television.
ITV generates revenues from advertising through traditional broadcast, sponsorship and online, and competes with commercial broadcasters and other advertising media, for its advertising revenues. In the UK, television advertising (including Video on Demand (VOD), sponsorship and other television revenues) continues to hold a significant share of the overall advertising market with a share of 27.5% in 2016, (2015: 28.7%). Internet advertising (search, classified and display) has grown its share to 46.6% in 2016 (2015: 42.7%), making the UK one of the most
developed markets for online advertising. This growth is at the expense of print advertising, which declined to 15.6% in 2016 (2015: 18.2%).
The UK television advertising market is extremely difficult to measure as all broadcasters have different definitions. We estimate ITV's Share of Broadcast (SOB) (which is based on pure linear television advertising excluding VOD, sponsorship and self promotion) to be 47.4% in 2016 (including UTV), up from 44.7% in 2009. This increase is because of ITV's unique ability to deliver mass audiences across multiple regions and in key demographics.

You Know You're A Freelancer When…
by Vicki Notaro
Today marks my one month anniversary as a freelance writer. And do you know what? It's been a great month. I've been published in several very nice papers and magazines, and there are a few more lovely ones to come in the coming weeks. I've been on telly a few times, and blabbing away on the radio. Apparently, I look rested, which is always nice to hear.
However, I always have the fear that the commissions are going to dry up and I'll be destitute. I go out midweek thinking I'll be grand and forgetting that I still have to actually work the next day – The Fear and a deadline do not mix. I keep telling people "Oh it's going great, I hope it's not just beginner's luck and that I can keep up the momentum." – I should really sew that one on a t-shirt. And instead of pleasing one editor, I have to please several, all at the same time. Oh, and convincing my family I didn't give up my job for nothing is fun. NAAAAHHT.
So all in all, while I'm feeling good and have no regrets, I have seen the darker side of this freelancing lark, and copped that it's not quite as idyllic as most staffers imagine. However, it is pretty feckin' great, and at this point I wouldn't change it for the world. And hey! I have time to write blog posts like this one – with tongue firmly in cheek, of course.
You Know You're A Freelancer When…
1. You regularly offend people. You may think you don't have to answer to anybody when you're freelance and you'd be right – but every potential commissioner is judging you on your Twitter feed. Whoops! *delete, delete, delete*.
2. You buy extra highlighters and keep the receipt because you write them off in 18 months. #winning.
3. There is never any food in the house. Even if you buy all the food in the world.
4. The postman judges you for being in your pyjamas at 10am when taking a delivery of face creams.
5. Ditto with couriers at 2pm. But they're NOT actually pyjamas. They're "house clothes" and my dogs think I look great.
6. You begin to think Ray Darcy is your best friend. Or boyfriend even. And Maired Farrell your feisty sidekick.
7. You try and get involved in conversations between Grace Dent, Caitlin Moran and India Knight on Twitter. Y'know, cos you're all in the same boat.
8. You take regular breaks to watch Sex and the City "for inspiration", and then berate yourself for falling for Carrie's fictional lifestyle.
9. People tell you that you look really rested. Duh, it's because you spent two hours on your make-up "for a review". And slept until 10.30am.
10. Your self-promotion reaches new heights on social networks, and everyone starts to ignore you after inital choruses of "Woohoo, go you!".
11. Everybody is schmooze-worthy. Everybody. Yes, even you.
12. You pitch a REALLY good idea, and then freak out when it's commissioned, because now you have to actually write it without offending anybody/giving your mother a heart attack.
13. You keep saying "When I get paid…"
14. All you ever want is a travel feature so you can go on bloody holidays and not feel like a total slacker.
15. Your boyfriend secretly thinks because you work from home, you are now a 1950s housewife and resents coming home to a greasy, caffeinated laptop-slave.
16. You get business cards printed up and then forget to give them to anybody.
17. People ask you what you're up to and you begin to ream off work in progress until you see their eyes glaze over.
18. Leaving the house seems like a terrible inconvenience. Unless it's to go to a lig, of course.
19. You change your Twitter bio regularly to reflect what metaphorical professional hat you're wearing that day. I nearly added "relationships expert" to mine because a radio station called me one three times.
20. You swear that next week, you'll start that routine you've been banging on about.
21. Commissioning editors take out a restraining order against you. LOL, JK. Ahem.
22. You do that jokey thing where you're all like "Oh, do you want to commission me? HAHAHA". And you're DEAD. SERIOUS.

BCoF Alpha Announcement!It's finally here! Check out our latest development blog.
0 Members and 1 Guest are viewing this topic.
Bannerlord is apparently not coming any time soon: http://www.pcgamer.com/mount-blade-2-bannerlord-creators-give-update-on-development-progress/
Hello.. I have a problem... It says I don't have Mount&Blade Warband: Napoleonic War and I have to buy it
A lack of release date doesn't mean a release isn't anywhere close. It could be coming within the next few months, all depending on how quickly progress is made. Remember: time =/= quality; there's absolutely no true relation. A man can paint a masterpiece in a few minutes while another paints a piece of shit over the span of several years. Same with books, same with movies, same with music, same with anything. As long as everything goes well and there's minimal interruptions, Bannerlord can come out pretty quickly.That said, don't get too hung up on these games. There's plenty of amazing games out there and you're robbing yourself of them by focusing on NW, BCoF, Bannerlord, WoR, etc.

Washington, D.C. native James McDonald has seen his Dunbar high school team struggle in the early going of his senior season.
"We're 1-2 right now so it's not going real well," said McDonald. "I'm having a pretty good year. I have 16 catches for 377 yards and four touchdowns so far."
The talented wide receiver has also set up his first official visit.
"I've set up an official visit for Notre Dame on January 15th," McDonald said. "I've also discussed it with a few other schools and I'll be setting visits with them soon."
We asked McDonald to elaborate on the other schools.
"Penn State and Pittsburgh are the other two schools I've been talking to about a visit," he said.
As for his final two visits, McDonald says he's unsure what he'll do at the present time.
"I'll probaby visit Boston College and Utah, but I've also been thinking about a bunch of schools for visits," McDonald said. "North Carolina State, UCLA, Michigan, Michigan State and Wisconsin are some of the other schools I'm considering."
The Irish continue to recruit McDonald heavily, and he says he talks with the Irish coaches frequently.
"I've actually got to meet coach Diedrick in person," McDonald said. "He came out and timed me. He calls me every week and we talk about the offense and how they're doing.
"I haven't been able to watch them much. I caught some of the Michigan game. We play a lot of our games on Saturdays so I only get to see the highlights. They look pretty good right now."
McDonald says he plans to take most of his visits after the season, but a decision could come at any time.
"I'll set them up to take my visits after my season," he said. "The only visit I might make during the season is to Pitt in December. I don't know when I'll decide--probably after my visits. If I'm overwhelmed at a school and it feels right, I'd probably commit right there."
We asked McDonald what he was looking for in a school when he makes his final decision.
"I'd like to find an offense that wants to make me one of their main weapons on offense," McDonald said. "I want to find a coaching staff that can develop me as a football player, but also make me a better person so that will be important."
Comments: McDonald appears to be high on the Irish at this point. We do believe that a number of schools also have his interest at this point as well. He's having a great senior season, and I've always liked his film and they way he attacks the ball. Someone is going to land a talented receiver when he signs. Here is McDonald's film to take another look.

The announcement was made in a Nico TV live stream, and appears to use the same fighting engine that's used in Tekken. Since arcade aren't as popular in the West, this title will likely be coming to the Wii U at a later date, but no word on that yet. Here's a first look at the reveal trailer: The trailer shows off Lucario and Machamp having a pretty awesome close-up fight. No other playable Pokémon were revealed, but hopefully the full roster doesn't get leaked. I'm looking at you, Smash Bros… What playable characters do you hope to see in Pokken Tournament?

Honeywell & Oculus VR from Happy Finish on Vimeo.
Honeywell Aerospace wanted to demonstrate, in an engaging way, the breadth of their technology portfolio. To tell the story of how Honeywell allow pilots, passengers and operators to experience the "Possibilities of Flight. Made Easy". The piece was to be shown in their booth at the MEBA trade show in Dubai.
One of the objectives was to reflect the cutting-edge technology that Honeywell are promoting; so we decided to build a Virtual Reality experience that would guarantee footfall to the booth at MEBA. An experience that would completely immerse the customer in the Honeywell story and leave them invigorated as well as educated.
We would tell the Nose-to-Tail story in two parts: the Cockpit and the Cabin. The virtual environments would be modelled in 3D with a low-poly aesthetic to keep the rendering manageable whilst still looking cool.
There would be several stories played out in each environment based on a specific technology. These stories would be cinematic animations played out within the virtual environment and would be augmented with informative graphics and text.
Every story would be accompanied by a voiceover and apart from the initial selection process the experience would be passive and low maintenance.
User Experience
One of the challenges we faced was how the user would initiate a story without access to the keyboard or other input device. We decided to try deploying a red cursor in the middle of the users field of view so they would just need to touch a menu hotspot for a second to launch a story. We weren't entirely convinced it would be intuitive enough, but after running some usability tests it became apparent that it would work.

Welcome to Reading Literature for Future Teachers! Links above for syllabus and other jazz.
"Reading gives us someplace to go when we have to stay where we are." -Mason Cooley
"I want to catch words one day. I want to hold them then blow gently, watch them float right out of my hands."
― Jacqueline Woodson, Brown Girl Dreaming
Welcome to Reading Literature for Future Teachers! Links above for syllabus and other jazz.
You'll have lots of choices with your book selections. Our goal will be to find books you like!
We'll read, make, share, and play in this class. Looking forward to reading ALL THE THINGS!
Eleanor and Park is an exceptional novel that really grasped my attention right from the start. Eleanor is a misfit at her new school, and while she acknowledges this she is content with being herself (smart, witty, quirky, etc.) However, it wasn't until she met Park that she realized that there are truly good people
For my graphic novel I chose Anya's Ghost. At first I was really excited to read a graphic novel… but I guess I didn't chose the right one. When I say "the right one" I mean one that I would enjoy. I really love the concept of graphic novels because it leaves some room for
For my second chapter book, I decided to read "Speak" by Laurie Halse Anderson. This book is a story about a young girl going into high school who was sexually abused at an end-of-the-summer party. Instead of telling anyone what really happened that night, she called the cops to stop the party and is not
Eleanor and Park is the cutest book ever! Yes, this book is a love story that is shown through both of their perspectives but told in third story which is kind of interesting. This book made me believe in love again. Love doesn't
Smile was surprisingly amazing. I have never truly been a fan of graphic novels, but this book was so easy to relate to. Especially growing up in the Bay Area it was nice recognizing all the areas she was talking about. Besides just having the story take place in that area the story itself was
The graphic novel I chose was Smile by Raina Telgemeir. I chose this book because I recently got braces so it seemed to fit to my interests. I thought this book was very well done. All of the graphics were amazing- the detail, he color, the expressions- they all complemented the story in an appropriate
For my graphic novel I read smile. I loved so many different things about this book. For one, it is SO relatable! Reading this truly brought me back to my awkward stage in middle school, when my mouth was covered in train tracks. Anyone who has had, will have, or has braces should read this
For my graphic Novel, I read Smile by Raina Telgemeier. I have never read a graphic novel before, so when I opened this book for the first time I was a bit surprised. Before I even started actually reading the book, I flipped through some of the pages, admiring the artwork, expressions, and word bubbles
Reading this graphic novel was definitely a new concept for me. I do not think I have ever really read one before, and I actually enjoyed it. Compared to the other novels we have read in this class, it was an extremely fast read that I did not have to stop and think about or
I wanted to start with a short review of the book Smile by Raina Telgemeier. Smile is a very cute and relatable book about a middle school girl named Raina and her journey through braces, boys, and bad friends as she enters into high school. One thing that really stood out to me about this
I really enjoyed this graphic novel. I felt like the artwork was not overly colorful, and the line art was great and consistent. The story itself was a strong lesson on finding ones own identity while dealing with other's finding their own too. It deals with jealousy, identity, forgiveness, and acceptance. Overall, this is a
Smile was a scary relatable, and I could see it being relatable to kids as well. This story is about Raina going through unfortunate struggles of being a middle schooler–from getting her teeth knocked out, to braces, to first crushes, to losing and gaining of best friends. This book is so hilarious and real. I
Part (A): For my poetry book, I chose to read Brown Girl Dreaming by Jacqueline Woodson. The reason why I chose to read this book over my original choice was because I was itching to read more books by Woodson after finishing After Tupac and D. Foster. Initially, I assumed that the book would be
Part A: The verse book I am reading is Monster by Walter Dean Myers. This novel is written in a film script form. This book is about Steve Harmon, a young black boy who is facing a twenty five to life sentence.This novel takes us into the life of Steve through personal journal entries he

Issue 1
This is the first edition of the St. Johns River Water Management District's "Permitting News You Can Use" newsletter. This newsletter is intended to share information about the district's permitting process. You are receiving the newsletter as a subscriber of the district's "Water News" electronic newsletter. The articles will focus on tips and other information to help permit holders and applicants understand and navigate the regulatory process.
In this issue:
Understanding criteria for well permits
A water well permit is required prior to the construction, repair, modification or abandonment of nearly all wells within the 18-county District.
The well location, well diameter at land surface and type of water use will help determine whether you should apply to the district or your local county health department or government for a water well permit. The district has delegated certain aspects of the well permitting to county health departments or local governments in 15 counties. You should apply to the district for a water well permit for the following types of wells:
- All wells located in a Chapter 62-524 Delineated Area. (Counties that have delineated areas include Alachua, Brevard, Duval, Indian River, Lake, Marion, Orange, Putnam, Seminole, St. Johns and Volusia.)
- All wells having an outside diameter of six inches or greater at land surface.
- All public supply wells, regardless of well diameter, in non-delegated counties and in Duval County.
- All limited use supply wells (formally known as "other public" wells) in non-delegated counties.
- All gang wells (a system where two or more water wells are coupled together with a common header or manifold), the total nominal casing sizes of which equal six inches or more, for the purpose of procuring or obtaining water other than for dewatering.
- All open loop (separate supply and return well) geothermal wells having an outside diameter of six inches or greater at land surface and all closed-loop (series of vertically installed loops joined together, with the recirculation of the same thermal transfer fluid) geothermal wells.
The exception to the above list is for wells in Marion County. The Marion County Health Department permits all wells except those in the Chapter 62-524 Delineated Areas and closed-loop geothermal wells, which still require a district permit.
If a property has a consumptive use permit (CUP) from the district and an additional well needs to be added, or a failed well needs to be replaced, the CUP must be modified, even if the well is less than six inches in diameter and falls below the district's water well permitting threshold.
Well Permitting Information
If a district well permit is not required, a property owner will need to contact the appropriate delegated county health department or local government listed below for a well permit.

Streamlining wetland permitting
In November 2014, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) issued a Programmatic General Permit (known as an SAJ-111) that authorizes the district to issue a permit on behalf of USACE for certain types of projects with relatively minor impacts to wetlands or surface waters. This authorization helps expedite the permit process and saves applicants time and money.
This authorization is limited to residential, commercial or institutional projects with up to three acres of impacts to low quality or urbanized non-tidal wetlands of the following four types:
- Wetlands in pine plantations with raised beds in production more than 20 years
- Herbaceous wetlands in improved pasture

Tips for showing 'sufficient real property interest'
Under the Statewide Environmental Resource Permit (SWERP) rule, an applicant must show "sufficient real property interest" over the land upon which the activities will be conducted. This is usually demonstrated through a warranty deed or other legal instrument. Interests in real property are typically evidenced by:
- The applicant is the record title holder.
- The applicant is the holder of a recorded easement conveying the right to utilize the property for a purpose consistent with the authorization requested in the permit application.
- An entity has a contract to purchase the real property included in the application, in which case the permit shall contain a provision that work cannot begin until proof of ownership is provided to the agency.
- An applicant is a lessee of the property and the property's recorded title owner is a co-applicant.
Applicants are encouraged to contact the district for assistance prior to application submittal.
See Section 4.2.3(d) Applicant's Handbook, Volume I, for more information on the appropriate documentation.
Know the ins and outs of pond augmentation
Homeowners with unlined residential ponds that are not permitted as a stormwater management system often want to augment the ponds with groundwater to maintain the water level for aesthetic appeal and other uses (such as supplemental irrigation, fishing, etc.).
This type of activity must be conducted according to district rules. A permit for pond augmentation is automatically granted if the pond is 1/2 acre or smaller in size, provided all of the following conditions are met:
- The water for augmentation is withdrawn from a well with a diameter of no more than two inches at land surface.
- Augmentation of the water level does not occur if the pond is discharging offsite, except to flush the pond no more than two times per year.
- Augmentation of the water level in the pond does not occur above the average water table condition for the site.
To obtain approval for other pond augmentation requires submittal of an application for an individual CUP.
