Sharman looks to iPod generation
Alison Sharman, the recently installed controller of CBBC, unveiled her creative vision for CBBC and CBeebies at the weekend, pointing to the iPod, broadband and VoD as central to the future of children's broadcasting.
Speaking at the Showcomotion Children's Media Conference in Sheffield on Saturday, Sharman (left) said that she sees CBBC as the "vanguard" of the digital revolution.
"The phenomenal success of the iPod demonstrates to me some important general themes about the way media consumption is evolving. It is going personal, mobile and, most important, on-demand," she said.
"And this genuinely revolutionary change in the consumption of content means that we must take a long, hard look at how we currently go about providing that content; how we schedule; and how we distribute it."
Sharman added that in an age when viewers increasingly take what they want, when they want it, the BBC has the potential to move into a "worldwide on-demand arena."
