Chrysalis Television

Background
Chrysalis had its roots in the television business, starting in the late 1970s, when it produced documentaries and tours of Chrysalis artists on television. It was expanded in 1985, when the company had set up its original IP Max Headroom. It was expanded into full-fledged TV production with the launch of sporting events in 1988, and then in 1993, set up the Chrysalis TV Group by Mick Pillsworth, with the launch of production subsidiaries affiliated with Chrysalis, like Cactus, Red Rooster, Watchmaker, Bentley, Lucky Dog, Tandem and Assembly. In 2003, it became All3Media and the production company subsidiary became North One Television.
