From the kitchen, to the runway, to the garage, reality, competition, and lifestyle series continue to teach new crafts, adapt contemporary formats, and entertain global viewers. In this special Academy Talks: In the Room event, presented by Boat Rocker, unscripted development executives, producers, and directors uncover the current and future trends of the genre and celebrate recent Canadian and international successes. Join us as we dive into decision making from both sides of the aisle; uncovering the development process and answering the big questions of who is watching, what has proven to last the test of time, and where new formats are succeeding.
