MotorSport Ranch II: The Series

In 2005 I began this blog to detail my experiences creating and producing a reality pilot called MotorSport Ranch.  Since then we sold the pilot to INHD who aired it throughout 2006.  Subsequently we completed production of a 13 episode season which aired on Dish Network's Rush HD channel in 2007.  Most recently I began working on a book titled, "Adventures in High Definition: How a First-time Producer Crossed the Finish Line and Scored a Reality Show - Without Losing His Shirt". 

After reviewing the blog I reread this blog and realized how incomplete, out of date and lousy this blog was.  I understood that not only was I a first-time producer, I was a first-time blogger.  I have had a few years of fairly extensive blogging experience and decided that it might be smart to start over with a new blog.  The new blog is titled, "High Def, the confessions of a reality show newbie". 

Check out a few of the posts:

You should not consider going into reality television production as a career, ever.

So you STILL want to produce your own reality television series?

Never swim alone, that goes for reality television production too.

You have an idea for a reality television show, what do you do next?

Treatment, screener, or pilot? That is the question.

Make your idea defensible.

Turning your run of the mill idea into a ‘high concept idea’.
