In this one-day seminar, Emmy Award-winning TV producer Jon Kroll will take you on a deep dive into the world of international factual production. Jon has worked in more than 70 countries on shows like the Emmy-winning Amazing Race, Gordon Ramsay: Uncharted, Never Say Never with Jeff Jenkins, Extraordinary Birder with Christian Cooper and Appetite for Adventure with Moe Cason.

Making these shows is both fun and rewarding, and the execution of them involves unique challenges, including language barriers, currency fluctuations, permitting, equipment carnets, unpredictable weather, insurance, diseases, safety, casting, scouting and travel delays. Jon will take participants on a journey from the first network country pitch to the final sound mix, and by the end you’ll be ready to take on the world!

This jam-packed workshop will inspire you to think outside-the-box, while giving you tools to implement your dreams – into reality!
