Non-Fiction and Reality TV now accounts for almost a third of all broadcast television. So how do you create a TV show when you have no script? How do you find the story as you are shooting it? And most importantly, how do you track and follow stories with the least waste of time and the most efficiency? THE REALITY TV DIRECTOR AND PRODUCER GUIDEBOOK has the answers.

This guide has been used on dozens of reality shows, including shows produced by Bunim-Murray Productions, MTV, and Original Productions.

So often in TV, new workers are thrown into new work situations without proper training. This guidebook helps train anyone who wants to work on a reality or non-fiction TV show. It also gives an overview of how many shows are structured, and gives hints on producing, directing, and saving money.
