Recently, Microsoft opened the Xbox Entertainment Studio in Santa Monica, California and will be headed by Former CBS TV executive Nancy Tellem.
With a team of 150 people Nancy Tellem planning to produce content such as “hit” programming, live events, reality shows and scripted programs. The programming will be comparable to the kind you see on TV, but users can share the experience while interacting with friends.
