Brighton indie, Electric Sky Productions has made it into UK business and production magazine, Broadcast’s annual industry survey of top 100 indies.

In 2007 Electric Sky produced over 62 hours of programming for broadcasters in the UK and US. Key commissions include The Castration Cure, 1 x 60 documentary for Channel Four, Fat Doctor, Series 1 & 2, a 6 x 50 minute series on Discovery Home & Health, Make Your Child Brilliant, a primetime formatted series for Channel Five, and My Shocking Story a 7 x 50-minute series for Discovery UK.
