New TV Series Looking for Agents and Homeowners
(released 12/30/2005)


Pie Town Productions is creating a new TV series called National Open House. The series shows what kind of house you get for the money in cities and towns across the United States.

They are looking for knowledgeable and charismatic real estate agents and proud homeowners in Miami or Tampa (as well as other US cities).

To be considered for National Open House, please follow these directions:

Real Estate agents

Please send a 1-3 minute videotape of yourself telling a bit about your real estate market. Are prices rising? By how much? What features are house hunters looking for these days? What are houses like in your area?

Tips in making your videotape:
  • VHS, Hi-8, Mini DV, DV and Beta SP are all acceptable formats.
  • If you are using a microphone mounted on a camera as your audio source, please stand within 3 feet of the camera and make sure to speak loudly and clearly. After recording, play back the tape to ensure that sound was recorded!
  • Ask the person videotaping you to hold their shot steady. Ask them not to zoom in or out suddenly or move the camera too much. Slow and steady wins the gig!
  • If you feel confident, walk down the street while telling your story. It's more interesting than standing still. But your camera person will have to move along with you, which isn't easy. If it feels like too much to pull off, go back to a static shot to be safe.
Send your videotape to:

Alex Jenkins
Pie Town Productions
5433 Laurel Canyon Blvd
North Hollywood, CA 91607

If they like your videotape, they will contact you to discuss what's involved in being on National Open House. This is great exposure for your business! Note: Sorry, but your videotape submissions will not be returned.

Homeowners

Please e-mail or snail mail a picture of yourself (and your partner and family if applicable) and pictures of your home. It's most helpful if you send a shot of the exterior of your home and at least one shot of the interior. Please include a note telling how many bedrooms and bathrooms your house features, the total square footage, lot size, how much you think it's worth today and why you love your home and town!

Send e-mail submissions to:

noh@pietown.tv

Send snail mail submissions to:

Alex Jenkins
Pie Town Productions
5433 Laurel Canyon Blvd
North Hollywood, CA 91607

If you are chosen, you will be contacted to discuss what's involved in being on National Open House. If chosen, you will only be required a 1/2 day of your time.

Note: Sorry, your picture submissions cannot be returned.
