Michael Essany is the author of "Reality Check - The Business and Art of Producing Reality TV", and in our newest episode of the Creative COW Podcast with host Franklin McMahon, Michael joins Franklin to discuss how he went from a local show to a multi-million dollar program on E Entertainment Television. Along the way, Michael offers tips on getting into the reality TV business, just how scripted "reality" shows really are, and the best path to take when planning out production of a reality-based television show.
