- Summary:
- Reality television is the growth area of television today. Don't wait to become involved, whether in front of the camera or behind, to attract talent-maybe from the local beauty salon or perhaps the rodeo, extermination company, or trucking company-and begin taping your own "sizzle" reels to pitch to Hollywood production companies! At long last, here is a book in which the authors explain and educate those involved in reality television (and those who hope to be involved) regarding the terms found in these agreements and how to best negotiate them. Included are: A brief history of reality television, A breakdown of how ideas develop and of the players involved, Reviews of, and comments on, agreement templates for all parties in the development and production stages, Deal-point checklists to help you stay on track, If you are an attorney who currently represent clients in the industry or would like to add reality television to your law practice, a reality television producer or someone looking to break into the scene, or any reality television participant, the contracts included in this book will be an indispensable resource all the way!
