Dan Biddle

A committed social media and multi-screen advocate, I am currently Editorial Lead for BBC Vision Social Media, responsible for the development and delivery of Vision social media strategy and all social media offerings for TV & iPlayer / Knowledge & Learning productions in the BBC. Working at the most senior level, advising BBC channel controllers, commissioners and executive producers, I manage a team of social media specialists supporting TV and online productions to take BBC brands, such as The Voice UK, Planet Earth Live, Springwatch, Eastenders and Being Human, onto social media platforms on and off bbc.co.uk.
I have overseen the development and delivery of dozens of BBC Twitter feeds and Facebook offers (and other platforms). I have over six years' experience supporting and managing online communities, including the BAFTA and Emmy award-winning multiplatform production Virtual Revolution, where I produced one of BBC Vision's first Twitter feeds and live tweeted the linear documentary using the first UK onscreen hashtag #bbcrevolution. I run training courses and presentations on social media and television / transmedia across Europe.

Producer and host of digital media podcast Off The Wall Post.

Always interested in new multiplatform / transmedia opportunities. If it's online, I want to know about it and to help it happen. In spare hours I blog as Article Dan, illustrate, play guitar and collect strange WiFi names.
