Shooting a pilot: need advice
by Mandy Mastromanico on Oct 6, 2009 at 7:31:31 pm

Hi Friends,

I am new to all this, so first of all - please excuse my lack of knowledge in this field. In answering, please assume that I don't know much about any of this and kindly refrain from talking over my head. :o)

That said - I have been asked by a large corporation to look into how much it would cost to shoot a reality TV show pilot. The clients are in the Far East, and I am their only connection to the US therefore they are coming to me. I have no prior experience in this field.

Can anyone give me an idea of how much it would cost to shoot a pilot for a reality TV show such as Anthony Bourdain's "No Reservations" or "Bizarre Foods". The subject matter in this case, is not food, but would require shooting here in the US as well as overseas.

Also, when production companies give me estimates for such a thing, should I assume they are shooting in HD? Is it necessary to shoot in HD? Does it add to the cost?

Thanks you for any insight you may have to share.

Best,

Mandy
