Turner Network Television has elevated Matthew Bunting to vice president and
executive producer, on-air creative.
In his new post, Bunting -- who had been serving as director of entertainment
promotion -- will continue to oversee and produce on-air, cross-channel and
off-channel promos on the network's brand-image campaigns, original films,
sports promotion and ancillary network collateral promotional pieces.
Bunting’s most recent endeavor was the directing and production of Hard
Starter, a three-minute original film played nationally in Regal
Entertainment Group’s Regal Cinemas to promote TNT.
Bunting also oversaw on-air components of the network's brand relaunch in
June 2001. His promo work includes on-air, cross-channel and off-channel movie
campaigns for Emmy Award-winning TNT original films James Dean and
Nuremberg.
Michael Borza, senior vice president of TNT on-air creative, said Bunting’s
work -- including that with the acclaimed "Drama Is…" campaign -- has helped to
make the network’s on-air promotion exemplary.
As director and producer of that campaign, Bunting brought in more than 50
individual actors, directors and athletes for promotional
spots.
