Case StudySunday Life every week on BBC 1, 10 am
Yorkshire is rapidly gaining a reputation in the industry as a hotbed for interactive media and games companies in the UK.
The interactive media sector is now the biggest employer in the region, employing 4,400.
We are working to support Yorkshire to become the centre in the UK for interactive media and offer support through our Business Investment Fund. Bringing TV and interactive media companies together to work on cross-platform projects is a key task for our Business Development team.
Leeds based independent TV production company True North secured a large commission with Sunday Life, replacing the BBC's long running Heaven & Earth. True North worked in partnership with Sheffield based interactive media company Quba to win the commission.
Sunday Life broadcasts at 10am, Sundays on BBC1.
Andrew Sheldon, Company Director at True North says: "This is fantastic news - not just for True North, but for the industry in the region, Screen Yorkshire has played a pivotal role in helping us to secure this commission, which will create a significant number of jobs for crew, as well as production and technical."
