Life on the Road: Producing Travel, Adventure and Food Shows with Jon Kroll

Life on the Road: Producing Travel, Adventure and Food Shows with Jon Kroll

Posted Thursday 04 Apr 2024

We are thrilled to announce this special intensive workshop with Emmy Award-winning TV producer Jon Kroll for our Auckland members! He will also be inviting guest speaker Alexander Ayling, a full-time award-winning filmmaker, content creator, Youtuber, and television host, to share his knowledge inside this seminar.

In this one-day seminar, producer Jon Kroll will take you on a deep dive into the world of international factual production. Jon has worked in more than 70 countries on shows like the Emmy-winning “Amazing Race,” “Gordon Ramsay: Uncharted,” “Never Say Never with Jeff Jenkins,” “Extraordinary Birder with Christian Cooper” and “Appetite for Adventure with Moe Cason.”

While making these shows can be both fun and rewarding, the execution of them involves unique challenges, including language barriers, currency fluctuations, permitting, equipment carnets, unpredictable weather, insurance, diseases, safety, casting, scouting and travel delays. He’ll take you on a journey from the first network country pitch to the final sound mix, and by the end you’ll be ready to take on the world.

Make the most of this opportunity – Jon has a wealth of knowledge to share and is a fabulous speaker!
