NOTES & NEWS

 

   
For four decades, Arnold Shapiro has been one of the most respected producers working in television. As the winner of 16 Emmy Awards, an Oscar, the prestigious Peabody Award and almost 100 other awards, he is one of the most prolific and accomplished producers in the industry. Arnold has produced 29 series, four movies-for-television, over 90 specials and documentaries, with his programs having aired on every broadcast network and 14 cable channels from HBO to MTV. His recent successes include the CBS summer hit series “Big Brother,” “Brat Camp” for ABC, “Situation: Comedy” and “Blow Out” for Bravo and many others.  He is currently producing a documentary reality series for the ABC Television Network entitled “Border Security USA,” which will premier later this year.

Television is the hottest medium for writers and producers now, but not everyone knows how to take their idea from conception to sale to on the air. Now you can learn directly from one of television's most successful producers - ARNOLD SHAPIRO - during a comprehensive 2-day seminar that will not only teach you how to develop your ideas, but create, market, pitch, and, most importantly, get them on the air.

"Arnold is as talented a teacher as he is a producer. His insights about attitude, ethics and passion are as useful as his knowledge about selling and producing."

- Bruce Rosenblum
EVP, Warner Bros. TV Group

Over the course of two full days Arnold will take you through the entire process of how to develop, finance, pitch and sell your own show, whether you’re doing a sitcom, one-hour drama, reality series, docu-series or MOW. For a full outline of the course, please click here. Arnold's vast experience as an entrepreneur, innovator, risk-taker and award-winning producer in one of the most competitive businesses in the world will benefit anyone from first-time producers to experienced professionals.

"Television is one of the most highly-competitive businesses in the world, with obstacles and rejection as prevalent as opportunities for fame and fortune. This seminar is an ideal forum for me to inform and inspire others to find success and fulfillment in their pursuits. From my thousands of hours of TV producing; and from my hands-on experience creating, developing, pitching, selling, producing, and publicizing hundreds of shows in numerous genres, I feel that my experiences and lessons learned can benefit those who want to work in TV -- no matter what work they do now."

From conception to sale, Arnold’s “Creating, Pitching & Selling Your Own TV Shows” is a full day of learning the realities of getting your show on the air.

"When I asked Arnold to take over Big Brother, I knew I was getting a producer of the highest reputation and standards; by the end, I had also gotten a producer who transformed the series into a hit show. He has been an incredible mentor to many, and there are a multitude of successful producers today who owe their careers to Arnold."
