Matteo TRELEANI (Director) - Associate Professor in Media Studies - Université Côte d'Azur

At a time of reconfiguration of the audiovisual landscape - platforms, internationalization, audience behavior - the system needs innovation: TV formats are today a crucial issue. The job market is sorely lacking in figures specifically trained in format development and creation. The DU Mastering the TV Formats of Tomorrow offers a unique opportunity to fill a gap in the media ecosystem, in synergy with one of the major players in the industry. At the Université Côte d'Azur, we strongly believe that we have a role to play in encouraging greater innovation and visual diversity in the media industry.

Benjamin DUBOIN (Co-Director) - Head of Talent & Content Factory - BANIJAY

As Head Of Talent & Content Factory, I'm honored to represent Banijay Group through this unique diploma, which offers students the chance to reveal their creative talent in contact with TV format industry experts from all over the world, who are keen to pass on their know-how and expertise to the talents of tomorrow. I'm extremely privileged to be able to work with students on a daily basis, helping them to express their talent and acquire years of experience in just a few months.
