Haha cheers. Don’t tell anyone but business isn’t my 100% love either. Ticker is more business lifestyle than hard market news. That usually makes me wanna snooze.
Ticker is more “lifestyle” and contemporary news. There’s no point trying to outdo ABC or Sky as a news channel - we are for under 45s who love startups, tech.
Im often asked who is our target market, and I say a 30yo professional who loves Apple.
I presume content is live during dayside hours only? I could see this show working well as a primetime repeat a few times a night (if its daily?).
Currently, we do 7 hours a day live. From 8am til 3pm. We are adding a 3pm edition of Ticker Newsroom in a week or two, then Ryan Jon’s show On The Download will extend to 4 days a week LIVE at 4pm.
When we aren’t live, we have a programming loop. All our shows run exactly 30 mins or 1 hour, so they run off a playlist until the next morning.
Our ambitions are big, and I’m aiming to get to 17 hours a day of original programming. News/chat during the day, sponsored programs and chat shows like She’s The Boss at night, as well as a few comedies.
The great thing about being an agile streamer, is nothing is set in stone. We don’t anger our older viewers by moving legacy shows around because we don’t have any!
Sky have been doing this for years.
I know. Bloody Stephan Conroy, Graham Richardson, Kristina Keneally, Peter Van Onselen, Nicholas Reece, Dee Madigan, Richard Marles, Michael Costa etc…
Comedies? Isnt that a bit off brand?
Comedy is a very broad genre, for example I think I’m hilarious.
There’s a show I love called Nathan For You out of the US. It’s a documentary-comedy. I absolutely love it. It’s the sort of stuff I’m referring to that would work on Ticker. But that’s just one example.
Our studios are big enough for studio audiences, when we can eventually sit people together again.
Fair enough. I wish there was a platform similar to yours for general entertainment - especially with the impending closure of community tv in Australia
@Ahron I think the ticker tv android app might to be updated or fixed .It’s not playing the feed live.its playing it like watching a video on catch up.youtube how ever is ok
@blackbox Robbo’s shot looked a lot better today! Nowhere near as dark.
all of these people are so deep in Labor’s right faction that they’d be at home in the Libs. PVO was also a former Abbott staffer. Sorry that facts are inconvenient.
Show sounds great. The graphics are too American for me. Less is more, particularly on smaller screens.
Ohhh, I saw it on Twitter! Didn’t know where it came from! But it’s beautiful and gave us a laugh, well done!
Oh really? Working in here, but I’ve written to our tech team to get them to check. It never ends…
I’ve seen it doing the rounds online, I don’t think it originated from this site however.
Agreed, been on my socials all day.
So?
Unfortunately that won’t be his shot next week, he was in a different location due to renovations. But we are working on it
well know its only delayed like a 10 or 15 seconds from the actuall youtube live
@Ahron Been watching the TV Blackbox feed & having the show on the Ticker App on my android tv, it seems there is a 1-2 minute delay between them.
its been like that since yesterday
