Host a TV professional within your Digital Media Company Northwest Vision and Media are working with The White Room on an innovative cross-platform project that will pay TV professionals to work with some of the region’s leading Digital Media companies.
Digital Media Exchange (DMeX) links the experience and skills of traditional media freelancers and employees with the new markets and innovation of the region’s best Digital Media companies. It offers a unique opportunity for Digital Media businesses to work with, and learn from, established professionals from the television industries, sharing skills and knowledge between both sectors.

So far, companies have requested a script-writer for a viral campaign, a drama writer and producer for a multi-platform drama, a director for a machinima ?lm, and a scriptwriter for a social networking project.
