Are you worth a good audience rating?
October 29, 2009 at 18:36 If a camera crew were to follow you around for a week - would it make for good television viewing? Or would your reality TV show be cancelled after the first day?
I know we can't all be weird, wacky and downright ostentatious - but you don't have to be. Take most of the documentaries on "famous" people ever produced - they're really about "normal" people who did what was "normal" to them in imaginative and amazing ways. And what great television viewing.
If you took one of your goals, or one of the problems you are facing right now and had to script how the television program would be shot - would it have a beginning, a middle and an end? Or would it stop somewhere in the middle with the "hero/heroine" at a crossroads - unable to make up his/her mind....
Imagine then coming back to the 2nd episode - would you still be waiting at the crossroads?
