The Performers and Reality Programming Governors, along with their Peer Group Executive Committees, invite you to:
And Now, Here's Your Host!
There's a skill set to hosting. More and more these days, traditional actors are cast as hosts. This event will explore how the most accomplished hosts are simply great performers, who shift performance gears to host in the same way they shift gears from sitcom, to drama, to even voiceover and commercials.
• What performer skills are producers looking for when hiring a host?
• What is the casting process when seeking hosts?
• How do today's hosts bring their performing skills and instincts to their hosting duties?
