The For Your Imagination advisory board is led by former television executive and CNN co-founder Pat O’Gorman.

Currently Tochterman leads Moving Target Entertainment, which develops and produces multiplatform and branded projects, as well as providing consulting and management.  Tochterman has developed and produced comedy, drama and reality projects across all prime time and cable network and is currently in production for a new live action series for the Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim block based on an award winning series of viral videos, entitled FAT GUY STUCK IN INTERNET which will premiere in Spring 2008.

“David has demonstrated success in building mass-appeal entertainment and we are very excited to have him on our team,” says Paul Kontonis, CEO of For Your Imagination. “His well-known creative and entrepreneurial abilities will play a major role in the expansion of original web video to television.”

Early in his career as Senior Vice President and Vice President of the independent powerhouse Carsey Werner Company, Tochterman played an integral role in the development and production of many top 10 television shows including THAT 70S SHOW, 3RD ROCK FROM THE SUN , GRACE UNDER FIRE, and ROSANNE.  Tochterman also served as Executive Vice President for the launch of Will Smith's production company Overbrook Entertainment and discovered such stars as MTV personality Nick Cannon.  He also was Executive Producer for the original pilot of the current Comedy Central reality series KENNY VS SPENNY.

In 2006, Tochterman was recruited to launch the broadband website ChannelBlast, creating and producing live original episodes of interactive branded content.  ChannelBlast amassed over 8 million page views at launch and was featured in multiple press articles including the New York Times, Forbes and Broadband Today.  As a result of his work with that venture, Mr. Tochterman has appeared as a panelist and moderator at such media conferences as Digital Hollywood, CES, OMMA and AdTech NY.
