Contacting Tim ChildBasically, as a producer I like to know exactly what some networks are looking for. That means going to unknown or "unpopular" networks and asking what is available schedule-wise.
I know one thing for sure, EMI is willing to ask Ed Welch about the rights and leasing of the original theme song. Then again, i've started composing my own version...
Apart from that, I can't really be specific at this very moment. EPIC Studios in Norwich (where Anglia Television used to be) has work space up for usage for filming, and my company E6 Films has a set of volunteers that work with animation and film-making. We use green-screen at the moment, but we're going to get a VERY large blue screen. (We, as in me and friends, are going to make our Dungeon and Dragon sessions into live-action videos!)
I would look into it more if it is requested of me.

Contacting Tim ChildWhat happened to Tim Child?
I've tried everything in the book and internet as a means of contact, and I found that I phoned a completely different company ^^;
There are a couple of networks who might be interested in creating a new set of series of Knightmare, but in the older format (non-VX)
Any ideas anyone?
