We just need to flip the model around and have makers run the show. Implement unobtrusive filming solutions so you at least solve the logistics aspect and avoid those pesky Christian Bale-type "you're in my shot!!!" episodes. Call the show Making It: Beyond Google Glassholes. Stick it in a 2 AM timeslot. Golden.

Makers Local 256 got approached for a TV deal about two years ago too. Nothing ever came from it. We had to go through the idea of camera crews all over the shop and how it would interfere with other people working on projects and other members that did not want to be on camera. But this seems to come up a lot as you can see from that tumblr post and never goes anywhere.

A little internet snooping found that this address belongs to a producer working for All3Media America. This company is behind reality shows like History Detectives, Cash Cab, Undercover Boss, Wife Swap, etc. I think that this is legit.

One one hand this sounds interesting-- but then, I'm leery due to use of a gmail address rather than a domain affiliated with the venture. It would also be nice to know more about who's involved.

If I can be convinced this is on the up-and-up, I'll pass on to my community.
