MUMBAI: GRB Worldwide, the new venture from GRB Entertainment that was launched at Mip-TV earlier this year, comes to this year's television event Mipcom next month at Cannes with a diverse slate of programming.
The titles being offered by GRB Worldwide include the reality show The Agency. It looks at how the modelling industry works and the real relationships that exist between the agents and talent - both good and bad - by examining the business of operating one of the world's largest and most successful modeling agencies, Wilhelmina. On the catwalk, at client meetings, on casting calls, egos can often run amok and with hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars in play on every deal, the stakes are enormous.
Another show is Full Force Nature. It consists of
dramatic short stories showing all types of natural disasters, from a storm chaser caught in the eye of a hurricane to a snowboarder trapped in an avalanche. These stories include interviews and award winning footage. Meanwhile The Tornado Hunters is a journey through Tornado Alley where the weather conditions annually spin up over 1,000 of the world's strongest and most dangerous tornadoes. Homeowners capture amazing and terrifying live up-close footage of encounters with tornadoes, providing gritty and horrific narration of the gripping moments before impact.
Untold Stories From The E.R. was created for American broadcaster TLC. It demonstrates the true dramatic nature of emergency medicine practiced under pressure, where every moment can be a turning point. Viewers can see how a doctor's personal blend of expertise, coolness under fire, and decision-making ability is challenged by unpredictable circumstances - and how character makes the ultimate difference.
GRB Worldwide focusses on the financing, creation, and acquisition of both fiction and non-fiction programming for global distribution. GRB Worldwide is part of GRB Entertainment which produces and distributes non-fiction programmes.
