Oren Aviv Meets For Fox Marketing Job, After Joining Digital Artists Board

While we've been scattered to the winds today, reports have Oren Aviv possibly taking the co-president of marketing post at 20th Century Fox. Fox started a search after Pam Levine stepped down Tuesday after 16 years at the studio, but the job would be bigger than the one she held, more like chief creative officer. Insiders say that Aviv is by no means a sure thing. There is a "usual suspects" list of seasoned marketing execs that range from Valerie Van Gelder to Terry Press and Gerry Rich. After moving out of a marketing role to steer? production for Disney, will Aviv be content to step back into a marketing role and share the post with Tony Sella? Aviv has kept a low profile since leaving Disney early this year, but he resurfaced earlier this fall when he joined the Board of Directors of Digital Artists. Aviv has been advising them on digital content, production, creative, branding and strategy. He was brought in by CEO William Kendall and Chief Creative Officer William Kendall.

CBS' Nancy Tellem Joins All3Media Board

The ex-president of the CBS Network Television Group who's now a CBS Inc consultant has become a non-executive director of the UK’s largest group of independent production companies. Tellem joins All3Media at an interesting time. The company is the last big independent UK TV producer left on the market. It’s expected to be sold next year to either a Hollywood studio anxious to get more into global TV production -- such as Time Warner or Sony – or Brit broadcaster ITV, which needs to beef up its in-house production. Financiers I’ve spoken to expect the price tag to be around ￡500 million ($788 million). All3Media produces Undercover Boss for CBS and Skins for MTV.
