[QUOTE="Hugo Myatt, post: 20795, member: 99"] Hi Guys, Nothing on television is real. Not even the news. It is all fiction to a greater or lesser extent. For once I know what I am talking about. This has been part of my field for the last forty years. Wacky 'Docu-Magazine' programmes like Top Gear are run by Budget Suits and they do not countenance three full on Outside Broadcast Units on a single day. Way too expensive! The director picks the shots to print over several days of filming. The rushes (dailies -US) then go to the editor and he cuts them into a 'story'. There is no obligation on the director, or even more so the editor, to know anything about the subject in question so long as they achieve good 'Production Values'. Production values in this context means that which will excite and entertain the mass of the audience regardless of their degree of ignorance. Add V/O, effects and music to taste. [/QUOTE]
