Not that anyone in here would normally watch the show but Real World DC premieres tonight at 10 on MTV. This is what I sacrificed my Summer for. And a large part of my soul.
Tune in!

- Start date
... Wait.... You helped film the show?
I was an audio tech on the show
Nice.... Altho personally I don't really care for the show.....then again I never have really liked or understood the fascination our society has on any reality shows so please don't take it personal. Ill let one of my technicians know though he was joking about trying to get an appearance on the show lol.
Not a fan of most reality shows. It's just a job
On a side note tho ill bet the film crew/staff parties are pretty sick :rockon:
Does this mean that you got to walk around with a boom mike and hit cast members in the head?? :beer:
Not that I watch MTV much anymore, but I'm a little surprised that this is the first promo I've seen for the premiere.
You told me he was the gay guy. I'm confused now...lol
oke: Is any of the show actually scripted or are they all just supposed to drink their faces off and see what kind of drama unfolds?
Wow! Shhhhhh. Don't tell my wife. My girls were an immaculate conception. Or so Trish says.

The crew was "furniture" or "ghosts" as the cast called us. Nothing was scripted or re-shot. If we didn't catch it on camera, it didn't happen.
And it's only gay if you push back
did you get to see any nekkid chicks? How can I get a job like that?
Damn, Matt-congrats. Got to be good on a resume.
Being over 40 (?) I gave up MTV about 30 years ago. But I did see the article in the Post, and recorded it just to see how they handled DC, being a native. After about 15 minutes, I found myself fast-forwarding through the interaction (once you get past the hugging) of the cast just to see the shots of the area.
Just how big a crew does it take to shoot a cab leaving the tidal basin? One to shoot the long shot, and one inside the cab? Or do they really do multiple shots, which kinda kills the "reality" aspect?

It was definitely interesting. I haven't watched MTV in years. In the wrong demographic. I was actually surprised when I got the call. Had no idea the show was still on.
Nothing was ever re-shot. So for cab shots, you had a smaller camera inside the cab and the "big" camera shooting as they drove off. Then we would race back to shoot the arrival. There were 5 crews of 5 shooting round the clock. Plus 1/2 a dozen smaller cameras for back-up footage. It was 4 months of backbreaking work(the rig I was strapped into was 40+ pounds) but worth it. Not sure if my knees could handle another season.
So you WERE the gay guy on cast!!
oke:Damn dude, I DVR'd it and finally watched it last night. I have NO idea how you did not absolutely go bat shizzle following those idiots around town. You MUST need a hug........I'll be over later. :beer:
+1
The girls are all pretty hot, but...
Couldn't we just exterminate their entire generation and try again??
Can I have the leftovers?
They are hot. Do they pick unusually dumb people to be on there just to create plot lines?
Oh my God. I'm actually online discussing an episode of Real world? Matt, what have you started?! :nonono:
