Exclusive: Sky’s entertainment format Revolution may be reminiscent of Rollerball but the British pay-tv broadcaster is set to soften the edges with a pair of kids’ spin-offs. I hear that the network is currently casting for two youth-skewing takes on the Znak & Co.-produced show.
Sky is currently searching for kids aged five to 12 with a passion for action sports to appear in Revolution: Skills and has also ordered Revolution Cuts, based on the big-budget skateboarding and BMX format.

The pay-tv broadcaster saw profits surge 12% over the last year.
Sky has posted strong full-year financial results with revenue and profit both up as the pay-tv operator starts to take advantage of bringing together its European services.
The company also brushed off concerns surrounding Brexit as it revealed plans to move aggressively into virtual reality.
Group revenue was up 7% to $15.8bn (£12bn) in the twelve months to end of June 2016, up from $14.7bn (£11.2bn) last year, while operating profit rose 12% from $1.8bn (£1.4bn) to $2.05bn (£1.56bn).
UK revenue passed $10.5bn (£8bn) for first time, up 7% from $10.3bn (£7.82bn) to $11bn (£8.37bn).
This was helped by Sky adding 445,000 new UK subscribers, more than half of its total additions of 808,000. However Sky no longer breaks out its television subscriber numbers.
The firm also unveiled plans to launch a virtual reality app and to produce 12 short films from its in-house Vr studios to complement initial experiments in Formula 1, football and boxing...

Fans of country music based drama Nashville can expect to see a few new faces this season. Alex Vega from Sky Kids and Brette Taylor from Laws of Attraction will be on the show this season. Their reoccuring roles for the show. We are not sure where they will come into place or how many episodes they will be on. Not much info has been released yet, thus we will have to wait and see when they do.
This is exciting news as Alexa has been very passionate about music. Sure, she will likely be singing country, but it will give her the best of both worlds. Nashville has a pretty strong following and has done well for a show of its kind. However, they have also had their issues and filming in places with high taxes has not been their friend.

Thursday, November 1st and Friday Nov 2nd during the 2012 American Film Market for its third year in a row, DreamAgo, in partnership with Hamilton International, the renowned Swiss watch company, will host "Hamilton Helps DreamAgo Connect". Known for its annual Plume & Pellicule screenwriting workshop held annually in Sierre, Switzerland and for the development, support and promotion of films that make a difference, the program has 3 key phases.
First phase is a speed dating-style pitch session designed to introduce selected screenwriters, who benefitted from DreamAgo's screenwriting lab in Switzerland, to well-known producers and distributors. Screenwriters in attendance will have 10 minutes with a producer to present their project before moving on to the next producer and starting again.

Second, the program offers the opportunity for any WGA writer to propose a feature project and try to win a six weeks Residency in Sierre (Switzerland), all costs covered. Among the more than 250 pitches submitted, DreamAgo & the Residence Ruffieux will select 15 projects and each of the writers will be given the opportunity to pitch it in person for 10 minutes. The lucky winner will be revealed during a brunch at the Swiss Consulate.
Third, DreamAgo will present a panel, in partnership with The Writers Guild of America, the topic this year: How to Preserve Your Vision When Those Around You Won't Leave It Alone?

Writer Howard Rodman (Joe Gould'S Secret, Savage Grace) will serve as moderator.

If you’ve ever found yourself lost in the on-screen magic of motion pictures, captivated by a dramatic action sequence, laughing out loud in a theater, or simply falling in love with a romantic line spoken by your favorite movie star, chances are you had to remind yourself that it’s all a fairytale, a world in which the actors merely play a part that has been written for them.
