A tv program proposal, (also known as a 'pitch', or 'treatment'), is a formal proposal to either a TV production company or to a network for a TV show. The proposal stage of approval to commence production is basically a business presentation to get funding, outlining the show's contents, its production requirements, and the anticipated market for an audience. The proposal may or may not include a pilot program, examples of scripts, casting proposals, etc. This is a common methodology for the parties to sound each other out on the issues related to the program, and address the business aspects of the proposal. |
