Who is Cheryl Furjanic?

Thanks for asking!

I’m a media maker and lover of all things television.

I’m here to help broadcast television producers build and maintain committed TV audiences using LTR-TV.

I can sometimes be found doing freelance work for Syfy Digital.  I was a member of the team responsible for developing and writing The Caprican – a story-driven website to support the Syfy original series Caprica.  Additional work has included consulting on fan strategy initiatives for the Syfy original series Eureka, developing content for the Warehouse 13 Agent Profile Creator, and work on the recently launched Syfy Fan Club.

As a trained as a filmmaker, I have over a decade’s worth of experience in the independent film community as a director and producer.  My firsthand experience in creating strategic communities during film production, marketing and distribution has laid the groundwork for much of my work on LTR-TV.  These days I continue to make films, teach filmmaking, and research television and new media.

I received my BFA in Film & Television Production from NYU’s Department of Film & TV and my Masters degree in Interactive Telecommunications from ITP at NYU in 2009.  My research at ITP focused on television, fan engagement, fan communities, and new ways of telling TV stories.   In February 2010 I completed post-graduate coursework at NYU-SCPS and earned my Certificate in Nielsen Audience Measurement.

I’m a proud subscriber of both Entertainment Weekly and TV Guide.

Oh, and did I mention I love television?
