It’s raining new shows on IBC-13

July 6, 2014

If ever kung mabili ko ang 80% stake ng IBC-13. I will plan to order a new transmitter, new HD cameras, and other broadcast equipment for its TV and radio broadcasting as well as the regional stations. Some of the shows would be produced by IBC and co-produced by Viva Television. Let's shy away from the three big networks here in the Philippines will perform a program. It was the heyday of 13, as also the opposite in the past few years. May become more popular the IBC-13 carrying their agreement blocktimer Vintage Sports and PBA, particularly Channels 2 and 7 of the two giants in the industry. Even beyond the fact that it becomes blocktimer channel them to various production outfits in the country such as Viva.

IBC-13 should be and RPN-9 as the general entertainment network, in order to rebuild its programming. ATC should imitate while Solar in RPN's major block-timer. Good move by the MBA to get RPN-9 to air the games on primetime. I hope the new blocktimer does a good job with the government-sequestered network.

A new network programming thrust for IBC-13, jointly owned by the chairman Eric Canoy.

And striking dun nun evidence that facilities of their time. A warehouse that was apparently side of their studio equipment volume. And obvious set-up its age.

The privatization of sequestered TV stations RPN 9 and IBC 13 was originally set by the Privatization and Management Office (PMO). IBC-13 which is stands for Ito'ng Bagong Channel 13, is set to unleash a storm of game-changing programs with its Signal No.13: Umuulan ng Saya mga Kapinoy third quarter campaign, is revitalizing its network programming.

The network's chairman Eric Canoy and president and CEO Boots Anson-Roa spearheaded the official state-run is up for privatization this year unveiling of the network’s new line-up of Sports (I), Entertainment (B) and News and Current Affairs (C) offerings during a recent trade launch.

“We need to make the station more viable,” Boots told Inquirer Entertainment in interview at the IBC-13 office in Broadcast City last week. “We want people to know that, still up fort privatization, we are beefing up our own programming.” Canoy is confident that privatization and get in the way of the reprogramming. “If the shows are good, I’m sure the prospective buyer will take them into consideration,” he said.

Hosted by Maya Loves Sir Chief's love team of Jodi Sta. Maria and Richard Yap, the trade event gave attendees an exclusive and first-hand look of what promises to be even greater things to come from the Kapinoy Network this third quarter, what with a fortified programming grid that further reinforces IBC-13’s commitment in offering viewers a different kind of Philippine TV experience. IBC is able to provide strong signal nationwide, and IBC-13 will be the undisputed #3 station in the country.

Additionally, the network also relaunched a new advertising campaign and brand name Kapinoy, which emphasized the new IBC lineup as being more distinct and new than what was being aired by its competitors to increase our audience share and our ratings at the time.

As the two giant networks offers big-budgeted teleseryes, reality shows, noontime entertainment and other mass-oriented productions, Canoy said IBC was determined to improve prime time programming (“The next two months will be very exciting”) while IBC become more aggressive with surging ahead in the ratings, but was also propping up its non-prime time hours with children's educational programming and with the hit animes (Kirarin and Ghost Fighter), sentai and tokusatsu (Kamen Rider Fourze).

Barney & Friends, the child-friendly in the popular children's television program aimed at children from ages 1 to 8.

Hi-5, the popular Australian educational children’s program airs Monday to Friday at 3 to 3:30 p.m. Created in Australia in 1999 and is based on the children's music group Hi-5, it reaches an estimated average weekly global audience of one million children as it is being broadcast in over 83 countries. Hi-5 is a children's pop music group much like peer children's entertainers The Wiggles. Each series has new episodes with nine weekly themes. In 2004 (Series 6), the show was marked by reduced episodes than normal, with 30 episodes in six weekly themes due to the band concentrating more on touring. In 2009 was marked the beginning of the "second generation" of Hi-5, with all of the original members having departed in 2006-2008. The series was renewed with the new cast by the Nine Network.

To produce its own set of children's educational TV programs through IBC Foundation, Inc., KapinoyLand, the network's longest-running children's educational program produced by IBC Foundation, Inc. and Philippine Children's Television Foundation, Inc. based on KapinoyLand in the Philippines for brand of the Kapinoy network, earning for The Best Children's Program for the KBP Golden Dove Awards and Anak TV Seal Awards. It airing from Monday to Friday at 3:30 to 4 p.m. The new IBC mascots like Mr. Kapinoy created in June 30, 2012 based at KapinoyLand at Broadcast City, Capitol Hills, Diliman, Quezon City, Philippines from the success of TV, toys, books, stickers and so much more. His friends Ms. TV, Radiogirl, Newspaperboy and Ms. Lola Pinoy are the stars of the show premieres on October 1, 2012 as the first live-action Pinoy Filipino animated, live-action Filipino animated and full length 3D computer-animated format concept is based on time traveling. Daily educational children's program teaching values and basic learnings for pre-school kids (in Filipino).

In the guests will be the kind of baby, child and kids play that Mr. Kapinoy meeting appeal to 2-5 years old for baby, 10-13 years for kids of these children, and will singing, dancing and playing for kids as live-action animated format using original Filipino music and stories, animation, theater, muppets, live action animated and features that Mr. Pinoy meeting learning, playschool and playground with exciting fun and games.

“If you notice, we now have programs geared toward the younger audience, specifically for kids. In the daytime, it’s mostly children who watch television,” Boots explained. “At night, we address the male audience by airing sports-oriented shows. At night, we adress the mass audience by airing local primetime shows (dramas, fantasy, comedy, musical variety, reality, talk shows and Viva Tagalog movies).” Please have anime programming in your line up of shows like Ghost Fighter.

The goal for creating this show was to increase the commercial value of the government-owned IBC 13, which was up for sale as part of the Philippine Government's privatization efforts was eventually bought by Viva Productions, Inc., which the TV and radio coverage for the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). Currently on air are PBA and NBA for basketball aficionados, and ONE FC for MMA fighting fans.

According to Canoy, Viva Entertainment, which has an existing programming contract with IBC-13, is responsible for the network’s primetime hours with the PBA games, The Main Event boxing matches and the Viva Tagalog movies on primetime. For this, Asian Television Content Philippines Corporation (ATC), which has been the TV content provider including telenovelas, Asian dramas and ONE FC fighter.

Canoy said he recently consulted Viva chairman and CEO Vic del Rosario, Jr. on how to reprogram said hours. “Right now, what you see on primetime are basically more Filipino shows that you also see on Philippine TV. That’s because those programs already have a captive market,” Boots said, “except that for free TV, a good idea to concentrate on the C-D-E markets also of viewers “for more mass-based level” .“I can’t divulge right now what the programming thrust will be. Viewers should watch our for this,” said Boots.

In my view, IBC-13’s our only hope to be the pointless network war and bickering among Channels 2 and 7 and its rabid fans. It all started reinvented itself and zoomed up the ratings.

Together with friends, advertisers, media practitioners, businessman and IBC's roster of stars and talents.

Here comes IBC-13, with its bold goal of being #3 by 2015, it’s fulfilling a goal for an organization and providing competition to the dull landscape being dominated by 2 networks made the industry. Artists have more choices and power to where they would like to work and show their talent, audiences have more shows to watch out for, we have more sources of news. ABS-CBN and GMA has felt the impact so much that they are pressured to create better programming and take better care of its talent.
