FYI Development Lab Contest

film-productionThis year’s Annual Realscreen Summit – now in its 18th year – attracted a staggering 2,351 delegates hailing from 29 countries. Hosted by the Marriott Marquis Washington DC, the goal of the summit is to “conduct business and examine the trends and ideas set to lead the non-fiction and unscripted genres into the future.”

For the second consecutive year, the FYI Development Lab Contest was held at the summit. This year, five production companies were able to sign “development deals worth US$20,000. One of the winning projects of this contest came from Nancy Glass’ Nancy Glass Productions (in conjunction with Vern’s Sweatshop Media). The idea behind the contest is “to provide production outfits with the opportunity to develop original unscripted programming for FYI.” The other four projects came from: World of Wonder, Goodbye Pictures, One Louder Productions and Dynamo Productions.

Founded in 2003, Nancy Glass Productions “has produced programming for all of the major cable networks including TLC, Animal Planet, E!, National Geographic, The Food Network, Lifetime Movie Network, A&E, DIY, HGTV, WEtv, and the Lifetime Network.”
