To-do list: reread X-Statix Omnibus, rewatch some reality TV shows. Then script out small videos of a fictional reality TV show, where all you get is the talking head commentary.
I'm rather curious as to what will stand out, and what makes those moments so easy to pull apart from everything else. Like, with Drag Race, it seems people love pulling reactions from those talking heads: they are perfectly framed for short, immediate reaction.
And in some ways, I am curious as to whether or not I can convey a story ('cause we can all agree reality TV is just a story with 'reality' stamped on it as a brand?) through those moments. I keep running the idea in my head and like the sound of it, but whether or not I can actually accomplish this is another question.
