All right.
Anyways, reality TV.
Bring it back.
So the way the good reality TV.
So there's bad reality TV, which is basically bad improv where they're like this, this and this is going to happen.
We're going to shoot it for 15 minutes.
That's not you can always tell when people are acting poorly.
Good reality TV is like three hours of footage that me as a story producer and editor will cut down to five minutes.
Wow.
Three hours to five minutes.
Yes.
And so the skill of a reality TV producer is saying, all right, how do we turn this into a story?
Yeah.
What are the most interesting moments from this story?
And how do we make a beginning, middle, end?
And so, of course, that, and I'm sure your staff will know this, being able to know what's a moment
is incredibly valuable, especially now.
I think I wasn't expecting my work in reality TV to be honing my ability to know what is interesting, what's a moment, what's clippable, but that's the same exact thing that I do now, whether it's finding something to post on the internet that I want to draw people's attention to,
Or if it's like just going from my own YouTube channel, like what like what are the beats of this story or like what are like the clips that I think are actually going to or like what's the hook going to be that actually, you know, makes resonates with the audience.
So so that's like one very easy thing that I've learned from it.
