AKTV: what we’re about
My name is Kieran, I am the founder of AKTV. Seeing scripted TV come into its own over the past 20 years has been amazing. I watched and wrote and worked through the brilliant precursor series of the 90s and 00s. I continued my production work into the ever expanding narrative and thematic pallet available to us in the 10s. Television today is at last an artistic medium on a par with film, literature, or any other.
As a production company, we are seeking to build on the foundations of the first true golden age of TV, which is now in full, glorious bloom. AKTV is committed to developing projects that are worthy of the creative goldmine that is scripted television today. As a company we strive to both create and shape projects that will define the bright future of TV. Drawing on considerable experience working with US, UK and French productions, we are driven by our love and understanding of the most exciting creative medium of the 21st century.

Flush
Feature film – 84mins - Find your ex in the night bar where she works and convince her to get back together? Sounds do-able.
Get the dealer and the bar owner off your back after they’ve left you for dead in the toilets because you tried to steal their gear? Fine, why not.
Remove your head from right down the toilet hole where you got it stuck? Urgh.. no guarantees on that one.
