My questions this time are about the content development process in TV channels and services like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.
I understand they all have different strategies and org charts, but:
1- Do they all have a Head of Content (Development)? If so, what is his/her role in the overall process?
2- Can a Head of Development order a new project to a production company based on an internal idea or do they only receive third-party projects and listen to pitches all the time?
3- What is the procos' level of autonomy and independence during that process in relation to the Content Development Department?
