We are currently casting a reality series called "Sightless in the
City." This show is being produced for Bravo/Discovery Health
Network. The basic premise is to follow our characters in their day
to day life as they navigate the city without sight. We're looking
for a range of people, young professionals, families, adults,
children. We are looking for people with active lives, who have a
positive attitude towards their disability, the confidence to be
around the cameras and the desire to tell their story. The series
will be an upbeat look at how blind people go about their busy
lives in New York City.
We are looking for a diverse group of people, of all ages and all
races. We want to follow them in their daily lives, at home, work,
buying groceries, taking their kids to school and riding the
subway. In addition we'd
love to include any activities/events that your organization is
involved with. For example classes or fundraising events. Hopefully
this will be a great opportunity to get word out there about your
organization. I'd love
to be able to follow someone as they train for the marathon, attend
college or maybe even a young single professional who likes to go
out and socialize at bars.
I'm also keen to speak to some families with young kids where a
parent or child is blind, or even multiple vision impaired people
in the same family. If you can think of anyone who would be
interested, it would be awesome if you could reach out to them or
pass on their details. It is important that the people involved are
confident and open to the idea of filming. If you can think of
other candidates that would be of interest then please let me know.
In addition is there anywhere in the center that we can post a
message for your members?
To begin with we will be filming some demo material which would
only take a day or two. Once we begin filming the series, we would
be looking for some time commitment from the participants, but can
work around their schedule. There is definitely an opportunity for
compensation for the participants down the road.
I would be very interested in visiting your facility and speaking
more with you about our project. Also please feel free to check out
our website http://www.kpitv.com for further information on our company.
Best,
