"Giving kids a TV platform to showcase their quirky personal talents is core to the fun of Figure it Out," said Marjorie Cohn, Nickelodeon's President of Development and Original Programming. "Combine this with slime and a panel of fiercely competitive Nick stars and you have a game that is uniquely Nickelodeon."
Every Figure It Out episode features a panel of four stars trying to guess the unique talent or accomplishment of two kid contestants each, through three rounds of game play, by asking yes or no questions while being bombarded by messy visual and tactile clues. For every round the panel fails to figure it out, the contestant wins a prize. If, after three rounds, the panel can't figure out the kid's unique skill, the contestant takes home the grand prize. Each game culminates in the reveal of the talent with an in-studio demo.
The slime that was made famous in the '90s version of Figure It Out is back and better than ever. Each panelist has a chance to be slimed if they perform the "secret slime" action, which is revealed in round two of the game. Contestants also have the chance to be honored with a sliming, if the panelist is able to guess the pre-determined "word of honor," a word that is key to helping them figure out the contestants' special talent.
Figure It Out originally aired for four seasons on Nickelodeon from July 1997 to December 1999 and was hosted by Olympic gold medalist swimmer Summer Sanders. Panelists from the original broadcast included Kenan Thompson, Aaron Carter, Amanda Bynes, Chris Jericho, Coolio, Jack Hanna, Sherman Helmsley, Evander Holyfield, Joe Namath, Julius Erving, Michelle Trachtenberg, Mike O'Malley and Mya, among several others. The series was created by Kevin Kay and Magda Liolis with Eileen Braun and Liolis currently serving as executive producers.
Nickelodeon has a long history of developing original, hit game shows. The first game show that aired on the network was Double Dare in 1986, featuring Nick's signatory slime. Over the next 16 years, Nickelodeon launched many other game shows including hits such as Finders Keepers and Super Sloppy Double Dare ('87), Family Double Dare, ('88), Make the Grade and Think Fast ('89), Wild and Crazy Kids ('90), Get the Picture ('91), GUTS and Nick Arcade ('92), Legends of the Hidden Temple ('93), Global GUTS, ('95), Figure it Out ('97), You're On! and Figure it Out: Family Style ('98), Figure it Out: Wild Style ('99), Double Dare 2000 ('00), and Nick Robot Wars and Scaredy Camp ('02). Six years later came Family GUTS ('08), BrainSurge ('09) and Family BrainSurge ('11) -- the new wave of game shows for the first generation of Nickelodeon parents and adults that grew up watching shows like Double Dare and GUTS [and Nickelodeon Internationals Camp Orange].
Nickelodeon, now in its 33rd year, is the number-one entertainment brand for kids. It has built a diverse, global business by putting kids first in everything it does. The company includes television programming and production in the United States and around the world, plus consumer products, online, recreation, books and feature films. Nickelodeon's U.S. television network is seen in more than 100 million households and has been the number-one-rated basic cable network for 17 consecutive years.

Technology startup Yovia helps advertisers leverage Facebook for real growth
JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla., May 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The slogan on the wall of Yovia's Jacksonville Beach offices says 'Spread the word®' because that's what the startup does. Yovia's People Engine is a unique technology that matches millions of social media users with select advertisers in a way that works to drive real leads and sales for businesses.
Yovia has already helped hundreds of companies including Nickelodeon, Toyota and Coca-Cola to spread their word by providing access to targeted, authentic Facebook users who are more than happy to help pass a message along.
It's no secret that people love to go on Facebook and share their personal lives, but the verdict may still be out on whether or not social media users convert into customers. The effectiveness of Facebook's advertising program has been the subject of much speculation leading up to Friday's expected IPO.
"Facebook is actually a tremendous great source of traffic and leads," said Yovia CEO Jalali Hartman. "But simply running a Facebook ad is probably not going to work for many businesses. Advertising is no longer about clicks, but about real people interacting."

[This unedited press release is made available courtesy of Gamasutra and its partnership with notable game PR-related resource GamesPress.]
London 21 May 2012 – The Children's Media Conference – the leading event for everyone involved in developing, producing and distributing kids’ content across all platforms – has today announced its programme for the 2012 conference, which takes place from the 4 – 6 July in Sheffield. The conference will be chaired by former BBC head of children’s programmes Anna Home and organised by Kathy Loizou and Greg Childs.
Lane Merrifield, co-founder of Disney's Club Penguin and Executive Vice President of Disney Online Studios, will deliver this year's keynote speech. Addressing the Conference theme "Ahead of the Game", Lane will share his insights into the success of the global number one virtual world for children aged 6-14, while considering new ways of connecting with kids in the future.
Following the keynote, an impressive array of media luminaries will take to the floor to host and participate in a series of Masterclasses and Panel Sessions.
Ian Livingstone OBE – Life President of Eidos Games and co-founder of the popular and influential series of Fighting Fantasy roleplaying gamebooks – will reflect on the current creative challenges and opportunities in interactive media, sharing some of his learning from the last 30 years and considering what the future holds. Ian's influence on the UK games industry has been fundamental, and more recently his report to government on equipping the next generation with skills in coding, has led to a revolution in the ICT curriculum in schools.
Ben Bocquelet – creator of The Amazing World of Gumball phenomenon – will join Mic Graves (director) and Daniel Lennard (exec producer) to give a masterclass on how The Amazing World of Gumball became a BAFTA award-winner.
Reg Bailey - Chief Executive of Mothers' Union, led a six-month independent review into the commercialisation and sexualisation of childhood. He called on businesses and broadcasters to play their part in the protection of children. Now he joins leading academics and representatives from mobile and online operators to discuss how far the industry has responded to that call in the CMC panel “Are we Safe Yet?”
In a new initiative for 2012, CMC is asking industry leaders to "put their money where their mouth is" in a Dragons' Den-style pitching competition featuring Nigel Pickard, Zodiak Media, Sander Schwartz, Fremantle Media and Michael Acton Smith, Mind Candy.
In a second new initiative for 2012, there will be a Meet the Commissioners - China session. Senior representatives from CCTV (China Central Television) and Kaku Animation Company will offer opportunities for sales, co-production and commissioning in China, and hold a series of one-to-one meetings with potential suppliers.
Commissioners and senior executives from all major broadcasters and publishers are attending, including Stuart Cosgrove, Director of Creative Diversity, Channel 4; Joe Godwin, Director of Children's BBC; Kaye Benbow, Controller of CBeebies; Helen Bullough, Head of CBBC Production; Gemma Brady, Editor, Education, Channel 4; Louise Bucknole, Director of Programming, Disney Channels UK & Ireland; Beth Gardiner, VP of Original Programming at the Disney Channel; Jamila Metran, Programme Manager CITV; Tim Patterson, VP of Scheduling at Nickelodeon UK; Daniel Lennard Vice President Original Series & Development at Turner Broadcasting; Sionned Wyn Roberts, Content Commissioner Children's, Learning & Digital at S4C; Eric Huang, Business Development Director, Penguin Digital; plus representatives from leading production, animation, distribution and licensing companies.
The conference close will be a debate on the future prospects for children's independent film-making, following the Chris Smith Review of Film policy, and the appointment of Ben Roberts as Director of the Film Fund at the BFI. Ben will join leading producers and distributors to discuss what can be done to stimulate animation and children’s and family film in the UK.
Anna Home OBE, Conference Chair said:
“This year’s CMC theme is ‘Ahead of the Game’, a nod of course to the spirit of competition and collaboration which we’ll see at the upcoming Olympics, ‘the greatest show on earth’.
2012's CMC will present intelligence and ideas to help delegates to scope out the future of their businesses and to find partners and colleagues in order to compete with the best in the world.
Currently children’s media and entertainment is full of new possibilities – there are new players in the kids’ market place as well as the rise and rise of Apps for kids and smart phones, along with other opportunities for transmedia development of brands. No doubt it’s an exciting environment to be in, though it does bring with it the uncertainty as to which business models to follow. The CMC will help delegates plan a route through this unpredictability.
The remit of the CMC is to provide support for producers and buyers to produce and distribute the best possible quality media for children. This year’s key speakers will cover the entire gamut of excellence in media: Ben Bocquelet will discuss award-winning kids comedy and animated innovation; Reg Bailey will talk about the commercialisation of childhood; Ian Livingstone will take us on a creative journey through 30 years of game-making and consider a future generation equipped to make the UK a powerhouse of game development; and Lane Merrifield, notably “ahead of the game” when he co-founded Club Penguin will explore new relationships with the audience.
I look forward to welcoming delegates to Sheffield this July to be part of the real “greatest show on earth” – making content for kids that’s the best that it can be.”
Other key sessions include:
Second Screen – Companion apps alongside TV content have made a big impact in mainstream viewing – are they coming to kids’ TV too? Leading producers explore how second screen children’s TV can work.
3DTV and Beyond – Examines the possible future for 3DTV. Will we ever reach a point of duality where programmes are simulcast in 2D and 3D, or will 3D be relegated to only sports and ‘special event’ TV.
So Now You've Got an App? – This workshop follows on from last year’s “So You Think You Need an App”. Delegates will get hands on opportunities to explore the creative and business issues that can arise as the apps market matures.
Screen to Shelf – Ready for Retail – Successful children’s media explodes into reality through imaginative play, experiences and products. Aimed at creators, producers and commercial partners who have ambition to take their brand into a life off-screen, this workshop will provide the insight and practical skills to help you translate from screen to shelf.
Never Ending Story – This session will explore the art of storytelling. Is it fundamentally the same as it has always been? Or has technology changed everything? Do storytellers from different disciplines approach narratives differently? How does storytelling have to change in light of children's media consumption? Will stories cease to have a beginning, middle and an end?
Other conference sessions include: Shape It, Pitch it (on early stage project development); The Power of the Parent; The Kids Are All Right (on conducting rigorous research); Enabling Kids and Connecting Communities; Protecting Sally the Seahorse (on character exploitation and protection); Thank You for the Music; The Audio Picture (brand extension on audio platforms); Working with CBBC and the ever popular panel-show style opening session which reviews the past year, explores future issues and finds out just what kids are up to in a light hearted quiz format.

Lime Pictures MD Sean Marley Leaves Company
From the Liverpool Daily Post:
Lime Pictures MD Sean Marley leaves companyAlso, from C21Media:
LIVERPOOL TV giant Lime Pictures is searching for a new managing director after Sean Marley left to pursue new challenges.
Sean Marley, one of the best-known faces in Merseyside’s media world, became MD [Managing Director] at Lime in 2005. In his time at Lime the company has developed new spin-offs for its flagship programme Hollyoaks.
The company has since pioneered "structured reality" with TOWIE, which follows the lives and loves of a group of young people in Essex.
Producers "nudge" its stars to make sure their real lives are as dramatic as any drama.
Speaking last year, Heswall-born Mr Marley said: “It is constructed and planned, which we openly admit. We do not make anybody do what they would not naturally be doing in their lives. We just make sure it happens in a way which means we can tell a story – and that it makes beautiful television.”
Lime also produced Geordie Shore, which follows some of Newcastle's "finest lads and lasses" as they partied in Tyneside.
The former Grange Hill producer is still a big noise in the children's TV world, with Lime’s show House of Anubis a huge hit in the UK, Australia and on US channel Nickelodeon.
Lime has pioneered new ways to make money from television, securing sponsorship from Skelmersdale discount retailer Matalan for the spin-off Hollyoaks Music Show.
It teamed up with licensing agent CPLG to produce a range of licensed TOWIE products.
Lime also became one of the first to use “product placement” in its shows after a ban on the practice was lifted last year. Well-known brands are now able to pay to see their products on television. Mr Marley said: “After nine years working at Lime, this felt like a good time to pursue new opportunities.
“I am leaving at a time when our slate is stronger than ever, with Hollyoaks, TOWIE, Geordie Shore, House of Anubis – and many more shows in the pipeline.
“I am proud we not only have the reputation of being a home for true creativity and excellence – but also we pioneered product placement in Hollyoaks and laid the foundations for a significant commercial business across all of our programmes. “With immense pride in our achievements, and with the company in such good health, I felt it was time to look to new challenges. I wish everyone at Lime continued success.”
Lime’s chief executive, Lesley Douglas,, who succeeded Carolyn Reynolds earlier this year, said: “It is understandable that after such a long and impressive track record here that Sean has decided to take on a new challenge.
“I want to thank Sean for the integrity and wisdom he has shown in all his dealings on behalf of Lime and the central role he has played in ensuring the continued success of the company. Undoubtedly he will go from strength to strength in his future chosen path and everyone at Lime Pictures wishes him well.”
Marley, who is originally from Heswall, went to York University before moving into radio.
In 1993, at Metro Radio in Newcastle, he became the youngest programme director in the UK. And in 1999, he joined Radio City as managing director.
In 2003 he joined Lime, then called Mersey TV, at the invitation of the company’s founder Phil Redmond.
Lime Pictures MD steps downAlso, from Broadcast:
The MD of All3Media-owned prodco Lime Pictures has stepped down after nine years at the firm.
Sean Marley joined the Liverpool, UK-based firm in 2003 as commercial director when it was known as Mersey Television. He was upped to MD following the All3 buy-out in 2005, with the company renamed a year later.
A Lime spokeswoman said that the firm had started looking for a replacement for Marley, who hasn’t reveal where he’s headed next.
“After nine years of working at Lime this felt like a good time to pursue new opportunities,” Marley said in a statement.
Lime Pictures CEO Lesley Douglas said that it was “understandable that after such a long and impressive track record here that Sean has decided to take on a new challenge.”
The move comes just five months after Douglas joined Lime from Universal Music UK, taking over the CEO role from Carolyn Reynolds. The latter had held the position for six years but went to work on new projects for All3 while retaining a consultancy role at Lime.
The All3 subsidiary’s programming credits include structured reality hits The Only Way is Essex and Geordie Shore, which air in the UK on ITV2 and MTV respectively. It is also behind Channel 4′s youth-focused soap opera Hollyoaks and Nickelodeon kids’ series House of Anubis.
All3 meanwhile is continuing the search for its own successor to CEO Steve Morrison.

His track record includes extending the TOWIE brand through merchandising deals and securing a significant product placement deal for Hollyoaks.
Lime chief executive Lesley Douglas said: “I want to thank Sean for the integrity and wisdom he has shown in all his dealings on behalf of Lime and for the central role he has played in ensuring the continued success of the company.

Schauplatz der neuen Daily Soap ist das Hotel 13, ein wunderschönes Jugendstil-Hotel direkt am Meer. Während der Ferien treffen in dem Hotel sechs Teenager aufeinander, die nicht verschiedener sein könnten: Tom und Anna haben sich auf einen Ferienjob im Hotel beworben, Flo macht eine Ausbildung in der Küche, Victoria ist ein verwöhnter Gast und Jack ist der Sohn des Hotelbesitzers. Als Annas Freundin Liv im Hotel eintrifft, ist die Gruppe komplett. Tom hat seine ganz eigenen Gründe für einen Ferienjob im Hotel 13: Er hat eine rätselhafte Botschaft bekommen und soll das Zimmer 13 finden. Doch das ist leichter gesagt als getan, denn ein Zimmer mit der Nummer 13 scheint es gar nicht zu geben. Die Suche beginnt und mit ihr ein großes Ferienabenteuer voller Freundschaft, Spaß und der ersten Liebe.

Nick moves from House to HotelAlso, from Kidscreen:
Nickelodeon Northern Europe and Munich-based producer Studio 100 Media are again partnering on a major live-action series, this time one set in a seaside hotel.
German-language daily soap Hotel 13 (120x12′) will air on Nick channels in Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland and Austria. It will be dubbed into the respective countries’ languages when production is finished.
Shooting has begun in the Belgian city of Antwerp and will continue until December. Viacom International Media Networks-owned Nick, Studio 100 Media and its Belgian parent firm Studio 100 are coproducing, with Dennis Bots attached as director.
Aimed at 8-11s, the plot will follow six very different teenagers that meet in an art nouveau hotel. One teenager searches for a mysterious ‘room 13,’ which doesn’t appear to exist.
The pair first hooked up on Belgian/Dutch mystery drama Het Huis Anubis (House of Anubis), which was later formatted for UK and US audiences and led to Nick adopting a more open approach to global coproduction.
Last month, Nick ordered a third English-language season of Anubis.
