Tá méadú tagtha ar scála agus ar éagsúlacht chláracha teilifíse Gaeilge RTÉ le roinnt blianta anuas. Tá oibrithe againn le comhlachtaí neamhspleácha, craoltóirí agus maoinitheoirí eile ar fud an oileáin chun rogha níos leithne de chláracha Gaeilge a chur ar fáil do lucht féachana na hÉireann. Déanaimid coimisiúnú ar fud gach seánra: sraitheanna fíorasacha, fíorasacha-siamsaíochta agus stíl mhaireachtála leathuair an chloig den chuid is mó, ach cláracha faisnéise agus ceoil aon uaire, ábhar do leanaí agus cláracha siamsaíochta freisin.

Déantar sraitheanna Gaeilge á chraoladh den chuid is mó le linn buaicamanna craolta, ón 7-9pm ó Luan go hAoine ar RTÉ One den chuid is mó. Bíonn siad sa sceideal in éineacht le sraitheanna stíl mhaireachtála agus fíorasacha-siamsaíochta a bhfuil tóir orthu, amhail Home Rescue, How To Be Good With Money, Home of the Year agus The Style Counsellors, agus bítear ag súil go gcloífidh siad leis na hardchaighdeáin léirithe agus eagarthóireachta céanna agus go meallfaidh siad lucht féachana leathan náisiúnta.

Cé go ndéantar an chuid is mó dár sraitheanna á chraoladh idir 7-9pm ar oícheanta i rith na seachtaine ar RTÉ One, cuirimid fáilte i gcónaí roimh smaointe do chláracha faisnéise aonair a sheasann amach ina bhfuil an teanga ina gné oiriúnach d’insint an scéil (i.e. scéalta maithe a bhfuil sé éasca iad a insint go hiomlán, nó den chuid is mó i nGaeilge) agus ar féidir iad a chraoladh le linn buaicamanna craolta i ndiaidh na tairsí.

Ina theannta sin, féachaimid i gcónaí le tacú le hábhar nuálach Gaeilge do lucht féachana níos óige ar RTÉ Two agus RTÉ Jr.

Tá suim go háirithe againn i bpearsantachtaí nua a fhorbairt: daoine tarraingteacha agus éirimiúla a bhfuil Gaeilge líofa, saineolas ceart acu agus a bhfuil tuairimí láidre acu, beag beann ar iad a bheith ina bpríomhláithreoirí, údair nó rannpháirtithe sa chlár.

Ar deireadh, tabharfar aird speisialta ar thograí a bhfuil uaillmhianta digiteacha agus / nó raidió luaite leo agus a bheifear ábalta iad a úsáid ar ardáin éagsúla.

RTÉ’s Irish-language television offering has grown in scale and diversity over the past few years. We have worked with independent companies, other broadcasters and funders across the island to bring a growing slate of programmes as Gaeilge to Irish audiences. We commission across all genres: mainly half-hour factual, fact-ent and lifestyle series, but also one-off documentary and music, children’s content and entertainment programmes.

Irish Language series play mostly in peak-time slots, mainly 7-9pm Monday-Friday on RTÉ One. They sit alongside popular lifestyle and fact-ent series like Home Rescue, How To Be Good With Money, Home of the Year and The Style Counsellors and are expected to adhere to the same high production and editorial standards and appeal to a broad national audience.

Although the majority of our series play between 7-9pm weeknights on RTÉ One, we are always open to ideas for standout single docs where the language is a naturally occurring aspect of the storytelling (i.e. good stories which lend themselves easily to being told entirely, or in majority, as Gaeilge) which can play in peak-time post-watershed slots.

In addition, we always aim to support innovative content in Irish for younger audiences on RTÉ Two and RTÉ Jr.

We are particularly interested in developing new faces: engaging and intelligent people with fluent Irish, real expertise and big things to say, whether as programme anchors, authors or contributors.

Finally, special consideration will be given to proposals which have stated digital and/or radio ambitions and which can work on multiple platforms.

We ask, in the first instance, that producers submit ideas into the eCommissioning system: Login | RTE (rtegroup.ie) under the programme category Claracha Gaeilge "General".
