The San Gabriel Valley Tribune wrote a story this weekend about a reality television course at Mt. San Antonio College in Walnut, CA. Dan Smith teaches a hands-on approach to 25 students each semester on how to shoot a reality TV show. Reality TV has a very different production style than a typical narrative script format, so Smith teaches them how to be ready for anything. One of his lessons involves re-creating a scene from a show, such as “Survivor.” The class has produced a handful of successful students who now work on various reality television shows.
