First Ever Livestream-to-TV Format Pioneered by Viacom Labs, Greenlit for On-Air Series
Viacom announced today that Viacom Labs, an incubator for the future of fan experience and engagement, has pioneered a breakthrough television format that pulls in livestreams from fans as a curated real time feed running on-air during a regularly scheduled television show!
MTV Australia, the Labs' partner in the experiment, will be the first to produce and launch an original series based on the test. The as yet untitled show will air on Australia’s 24-hour linear music channel, MTV Music, and is set to premiere in 2017.

The successful experiment in June 2016, which attracted an audience more than double MTV Music Australia’s average, involved collaboration from Viacom teams across three continents – the United States, Europe, and Australia – where production teams and music fans were invited to livestream themselves dancing to music videos that aired on MTV Music Australia during the test.
“Viacom Labs’ mission is to constantly evolve how fans connect to the content they love and give them opportunities to make it their own,” said Susan Claxton, co-head of Viacom Labs. “Labs’ global livestream-to-tv experiment with our amazing colleagues at MTV Australia demonstrates what’s possible when we work together to leverage the dynamics of the social web and the massive scale and context of linear television.”
Fans were empowered to co-create the show simply by using their dance moves and a device to livestream. The livestreams, which can be pulled from most livestreaming platforms once fans include the designated hashtag, were selected in real time by a show producer in a control room who viewed them on many screens simultaneously. The result was an unprecedented storytelling format that makes linear television more kinetic and interactive than ever as viewers saw the fan dancing on the screen in a box superimposed on the show screen.
“By partnering with Viacom Labs, we are developing a truly innovative and immersive fan experience never seen on television,” said Simon Bates, Vice President and Head of MTV Asia Pacific. “Marrying the technology of livestreaming with a linear broadcast catapults fan engagement into the 21st century and we’re excited to be the first market to bring the concept to life.”
The livestream test and resulting Australian series news comes on the heels of the announcement that Kiel Berry joins Viacom Labs as Co-Head/SVP, sharing that role with Viacom veteran Susan Claxton, Co-Head of Viacom Labs/SVP. Prior to joining Viacom, Berry ran Linkin Park’s Machine Shop Ventures, a VC with stakes in Lyft, Hyperloop One, and Blue Bottle Coffee, among many others. Berry ran the band’s Machine Shop Entertainment before that, aligning Linkin Park’s influence and interest across music, technology, content and design. He also worked at Creative Artists Agency in their Entertainment Marketing and International Business Development groups, and began his career working overseas and stateside as an investment banker at J.P. Morgan after graduating from University of Pennsylvania.

Viacom Celebrates the Power of Stories in Its 2016 Social Impact Review
Viacom Inc. has announced the release of its 2016 Social Impact Review that details how the company amplified the unique voices of its audiences and employees to create positive change throughout 2015!
The Power of Stories is the product of Viacommunity, the umbrella arm of Viacom's corporate social responsibility program, which unveiled the report at a Social Impact Fair in its New York City headquarters that featured a musical performance by award-winning R&B artist Mario.
“Viacom continues to lead the way in delivering positive social impact through the power of entertainment and through the passion of our fans whose stories inspire us to act,” said Ali Jannello Tuck, Vice President (VP) of Corporate Social Responsibility at Viacom. “2015 showcased the incredible work of our brands to educate and mobilize viewers globally on issues that matter most to them: domestic violence and sexual assault, gender and racial equality, reproductive health, childhood education, veteran care, and environmental protection, among many others.”
To address society's biggest challenges, Viacommunity focuses its efforts on six areas that align with the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals: building inclusive societies; pioneering social change; promoting healthy living; inspiring future generations; empowering people; and managing business responsibly.
Some examples of 2015 successes include:
* The global impact of MTV’s Staying Alive Foundation and acclaimed Nigerian television series MTV Shuga, which together form a revolutionary mass-media campaign on sexual health. The foundation raised more than $2 million for ongoing HIV/AIDS projects, while female viewers of Shuga experienced a 68% reduction in chlamydia infections, according to the World Bank. In the U.S., MTV’s airing of White People, a groundbreaking documentary that examines race in America from the viewpoint of white Millennials, has helped provoke a national conversation about the realities of white privilege. Likewise, MTV’s Look Different Campaign created a gender-focused implicit bias quiz on Women’s Equality Day to address gender bias, and released an eye-opening study that shows how young people often have difficulty identifying issues related to gender equality, such as equal pay.
* The launch of Logo’s documentary films division to elevate stories that capture LGBT life and culture. Logo released five award-winning films including Matt Shepard is a Friend of Mine, which earned the network a Daytime Emmy Award. During the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling on same-sex marriage, Logo’s #All50 campaign allowed people to share personal stories and support for marriage equality. Additionally, the 2015 Logo Trailblazer Honors, which celebrates pioneers at the forefront of the fight for equality, was the largest televised Pride month event; there, it recognized activist Arsham Parsi for his work to aid LGBT communities in Iran.
* Viacom’s partnership with WITNESS, a global human rights organization, on a powerful public service announcement campaign in New York City. “WITNESS the Power of Story” used video projection and social media at locations across the city to highlight issues of gender, race, sexuality, among others, and to call attention to Viacommunity’s biggest campaigns. Viacom – through its NO MORE partnership with the Joyful Heart Foundation - also teamed up with Verizon to develop a TV spot that raised awareness of the 6,000 victims of domestic violence turned away from shelters every day. Viacom Says NO MORE PSAs also continue to run across our networks, sparking important discussion about domestic abuse and sexual assault.
* Nickelodeon’s national summer tour of its “Worldwide Day of Play,” with health and wellness-themed activities that encouraged more than 20,000 kids to get out and get active. The network also launched the first-ever “Get Dirty! Challenge” called on kids to submit videos showing how they were doing their part to protect the environment, and featured eco-themed TV spots with celebrities to demonstrate environmental stewardship. Nickelodeon Spain hosted of SLIME FEST, a musical festival to raise money to combat bullying and cyberbullying, in partnership with Save the Children. And through Nickelodeon’s Helping and Leading Others (HALO) Awards, 20 charities received $100,000 to turn kids’ causes into powerful change agents for good.
* BET’s “Where Do You Do It?” PSA to educate African-American women about breast cancer and empower them to take control over their health garnered 57.8 million views. BET’s What’s At Stake, a powerful weekly web series, continued to focus on the most critical issues affecting young people of color in America. BET Youth Experience invited 50 high school students to learn what it takes to put on a music festival as part of the network’s commitment to education and career development in the entertainment industry. And its Next Level website aided some 600,000 students in choosing the right schools and making career plans.
* SPIKE’s Veterans Operation Wellness (VOW) Guinness World Records™ Pull-Ups Challenge, which raised awareness of veterans’ issues including post-traumatic stress disorder and inspired vets to commit to their health. VOW works with dozens of veterans organizations to assist veterans lead healthier lives through training, exercise, better diet and engagement in their communities.
* VH1 Save the Music Foundation raised $2.3 million for 2,000 schools across the country in 2015, and put $1.4 million worth of musical instruments in students’ hands, with the goal of ensuring that every public school kid in America gets the benefit of music education.
* The advancement of CMT’s Empowering Education Community College Initiative, which assists people in rural communities to build the skills they need to thrive in today’s changing economy. CMT has hosted 20 free events at community and technical colleges across the country, using music and storytelling to encourage attendees to consider higher education opportunities.
* Paramount’s Got Your 6 Storyteller Awards, which spotlighted the talents of some of the best and brightest military veterans, and the studio’s volunteers hosted more than 400 veterans at a barbeque at the VA Greater Los Angeles Healthcare System. 250 Paramount volunteers also participated in the 2015 AIDS Walk to raise money for HIV/AIDS research – its largest team to date.
* Comedy Central Latin America’s launch of its Stand Up Mobile campaign that encourages companies and parents to promote a safer online environment for children. As part of the award-winning campaign, three stand-up routines featuring renowned Latin American comedians were broadcasted weekly as PSAs to shed light on this important topic.

In the Are You Afraid of the Dark? episode "The Tale of the Midnight Madness", the classic Rialto movie theater is about to be shut down, despite the tireless efforts of 16 year old Pete (Eddie Robinson). The strange Dr. Vink (Aron Tager) curiously appears and guarantees the success of the theater with an old black and white horror movie he made decades ago. Customers become enthralled with this film, so Pete decides to study it closely to figure out its magnetic appeal.
