Australia’s Fred Media has secured several pre-sales for its newest series produced by WTFN, "First on Scene" (20x30) with Nine, (Australia), TVNZ (New Zealand), ProSieben (Germany), Play Media (formerly SBS, Belgium) and Viaplay (for the Nordics, Baltics, the Netherlands and Poland).
“First on Scene" documents the unbelievable acts caught on camera from America’s bravest news cameramen and women as they capture unexpected real-life emergencies, jaw-dropping accidents, and outrageous moments of life after dark in Los Angeles, Houston, San Diego and Chicago.
Each half-hour episode features eight thrilling news items – car pursuits, hit and runs, head-on collisions, out-of-control flooding, animals on the loose, massive blazes, urban shootings, high speed freeway occurrences, backyard infernos, plane crashes, wild weather.
Jimmy Elkington from Fred Media comments: “'First on Scene' is a fast-paced, absorbing and bingeable series that brilliantly both documents and deconstructs a wide range of impactful moments. WTFN has used its expertise in producing emergency and blue-light programming to craft a hugely exciting show that never fails to put viewers front and centre with the action. These pre-sale commitments are testament to the undeniable appeal that broadcasters and platforms see for their audiences, and we look forward to sharing this series more widely in the international marketplace over the coming months.”
