Today my guest Sheila and I will be discussing one of our favorite types of entertainment, reality TV. As a reality TV producer, she is going to reveal how she puts all of the essential pieces together such as story, cast and crew in order to bring everyday people to our screens.

Sheila Conlin is an experienced executive producer, talent agent, manager, and director of sales & marketing. She is a respected pioneer in unscripted television, trailblazing processes that bring real people to the TV screen. She is instrumental in launching and sustaining successful television brands including Hell’s Kitchen, Revenge Body with Khloé Kardashian, Kitchen Nightmares, Hotel Hell, The Moment of Truth, True Beauty, The Swan, Nanny 911, and Paradise Hotel.

Remember: When working with real stories, welcome unexpected twists and challenges and use them to your advantage. It’s these moments that can bring a new and exciting dynamic to your story.
Research: What’s a real-life storyline or plot that you would love to explore? Has anyone shared something similar before? If so, how did they do it and what unique perspective would you be able to bring to tell your story in a new and fresh way?
Challenge: Filmmaking and television now have to be more creative than ever before in their production process with so many limitations on travel and transportation. Therefore, I would challenge you to start documenting a personal experience or the experience of someone close to you in your very own home. Create a story from your day-to-day life or something special you can share with the world. You don’t have to have a fancy camera crew or major production budget. Just start with the resources you have and tell a great story.
