pmwfilm 0 #1 April 8, 2010 Cable doc series on the lookout for exceptional skydivers with great personality. Must be experienced in many disciplines. (Swooping, BASE, wing suit, formations etc. The moren the better.) Be able to strike a report with other skydivers immediately. Ready for anything. In the sky and on the ground. International travel experience a big plus. Other skills (surfing, motor sports, skiing, snowboarding etc) big plus. [email protected] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NickDG 23 #7 April 8, 2010 The next sentence out of their mouths will be, "We don't have much of a budget, bla, bla, blah." Because they know the glory hounds will line up a hundred deep to do it for nothing. Then the show will air and it will suck and we'll all say so here. Then the involved jumpers will come on here and say were all jealous. And the cycle repeats ad nauseam . . . NickD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WooHoo 0 #14 April 9, 2010 I was a tv producer for many years, both cable and network. As a rule cable had very tight budgets ("can you make it for $8000 per hour"?) the young producers keen to get a show on anywhere went "sure", with the crew and cast often not getting paid, as the big money comes in series two. Which never happpens as the cable company rerun the first series endlessly Also serious production companies don't tend to use googlemail, hotmail or yahoo e-mail addresses. Unless they are hoping to get a ton of private mails, and collect a good mailing list to sell on. Gee I do sound cynical, and my burnt fingers would explain why. The original poster may want to get a cast set up then sell the show to a cable network. This may be well developed but it doesn't sound like it This could be genuine, but It wouldn't take a researcher too long to go to 4 or 5 larger DZ's, tell folks about the show and find their cast (through recommendations and interviews) that way rather than this open casting which is pretty amateur and random approach, from my experience. By the time I finished my AFF at Eloy 5 years ago, I could have cast this show there and then. The original poster could easily confirm the cable company, number of episodes, budget, filming schedule airing dates and a whole host of stuff if this was the real deal. So I would suggest anyone seriously thinking about getting involved needs to know more and get answers. Oh yeah! one more thing.......If anyone wants to star in my new reality tv series "Around the World in 80 Beers" let me know. I haven't got a budget, or real interest from the industry but guy at my local community cable company says if I film it, He will broadcast it....maybe!!. Bring your own Advil!! "Read the small print!!!.......I didn't read the big print Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

happythoughts 0 #21 April 10, 2010 Patrick, fill in your profile a little (trust), discuss, and learn something. People here get trolled all the time. They are just going to f- with you. "...the new adrenaline-junky, reality show" is not new. Endless Summer 1968 Experienced skydivers all know people in the film industry. Building a few contacts might help you. You could ask a few questions and build some better idea. Better ideas have a better chance. Good luck. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
