We are TV Machine.
TV Machine is a Washington DC based idea-factory and production company that creates and aggregates next-level original content, strategic branding and web/mobile apps that reflect and elevate the "Urban Alternative" experience.

Urban Alternative is the New Black
The Urban Alternative experience consistently defines "what's next" in black popular culture. It is pop-culture's Nostradamus, delivering cultural tastemakers that are redefining the current pop-culture landscape, as well as those that will define the next wave of cultural icons. Urban Alternative resides somewhere between the blingy, sensationalized black popular television and its lowest common denominator "Urban TV" counterpart. It is the cool, artistic edge of pop-culture that remains hidden in plain view, waiting to be tapped for an under-served, silent majority. Urban Alternative culture creates festival-worthy independent film, remixed cultural classics, the best and brightest Internet stars and groundbreaking original programming. TV Machine mines our authentic Urban Alternative experiences from around the globe, curating and packaging the new "instant classic" content for TV, web, and apps, connecting to all of your devices.

TV Remixed
There is a tsunami of next-level, original content being created outside of the traditional boundaries of TV. TV Machine purveys this underutilized content goldmine, unearthing the hippest, funniest, most dramatic and impactful content being developed by independent producers of color from around the world and remixes this content with pre-existing, classic content to create the new Urban Alternative aesthetic for TV.

TV Machine is developing partnerships with consumer research experts that utilize cutting edge, interactive and real-time research techniques and methodologies to develop new consumer insights that unlock the potential of the Urban Alternative demographic.

We are TV Machine.
