Recenzii
"An engaging and provocative read. The book offers a detailed account of the creative, economic and regulatory processes that dictate the production of children's television today, via the first-hand accounts of content producers operating in Australia, the United Kingdom and New Zealand. . . . This book can be used as a lens through which to reflect on broader evolutions in media content production, and it is able to do so with unprecedented candour and insight directly because of its particular focus. Potter has uncovered a valuable entry point into increasingly opaque production cultures. Laden as this type of content is with expectations about its cultural, educational, social and civic significance, her interviewees seem to feel obligated to speak frankly about the creative and economic considerations they must face in pursuit of a sustainable business model and practice. This level of access is rare."
