Oscar(R)-winning writer/director SPIKE Jonze, a longtime VICE partner, serves as Creative Director of VICELAND. VICELAND will be a 24-hour cable channel specially programmed with engaging, original content across the worlds of culture, food, sex, fashion, music, sports, and much more. The network launches on February 29th, 2016. Jonze and VICE's chief content officer Eddy Moretti worked closely with the filmmakers in developing the VICELAND programming.

Says Jonze, "The mission of VICELAND is to create a place where we can create content that reflects how we see the world. Everything on the channel will have a point of view: either our point of view or the point of view of someone who inspires us. That means a willingness to stick out your neck and say 'this is what I think.'" He continued, The channel "is a collection of personal points of view, all unscripted shows made by filmmakers," Oscar-winning writer/director and the network's creative director SPIKE Jonze said in introducing the session. "We're trying to make a channel that feels personal," he added, delivered by "a group of people trying to understand the world we live in."
