Purpose

This film explores the dark, dirty, weird, existential, psychological, emotional, hormonal, sexual, primitive reality behind why we watch and love (and obsess over) reality tv. 



Inspiration

Reality TV has writers?! Once I discovered that it does, the idea of creating a story based on someone "rewriting reality" became somewhat of an obsession. Imagine you could rewrite your reality?! If I could do that my life would be amazing! What if a guy at the end of his rope rewrites reality? Rewrites someone else's reality? What if that someone becomes his enemy? 



String Out (Definition)

1. (noun) "a sequence of shots that a Story Producer assembles and gives to an Editor to serve two purposes; 1) to give the Editor a 'head start' on getting through the raw material that has been shot, and, 2) to give the Editor a 'road map' on what the story of a specific scene should be."
