The Prodigy, Opportunity Knocks: Reality TV Recruits Film Graduates of Collins College for Camera Crew
TEMPE, Ariz. (BusinessWire EON) May 30, 2007 --
The stage for The Prodigy is a real business with a real company where candidates are paid to work. All contestants have been trained to canvas the market and sell advanced technologies. Contestants are grouped into teams that compete with each other during the work day. Teams also share living arrangements. Film crews will follow individuals for four months, filming them day and night.
The winner of the reality show will receive $1,000,000, a luxury car, and an executive position in a top U.S. company. Sponsors of the show include General Electric, (C) 2007 Actuality Entertainment LLC and Firstline.
To advance on the show, candidates must be able to succeed in business working with real customers. The Prodigy is made up of three challenges that require candidates to demonstrate a number of skills and qualities, including a strong sales performance, exceptional entrepreneurial abilities, and outstanding character traits.
To recruit show contestants, The Prodigy visited college campuses across the country, where over 10,000 students were interviewed. Two thousand students were selected for the show's initial challenge.
Contestants will be assigned weekly challenges, and those who successfully complete assigned tasks will advance to increasingly difficult activities. The final round, scheduled to air in October 2008, will include just 20 people.
According to Ferre, "As a graduate of Collins College in the early 1990s, it was great to return and see many of my past instructors. When I told Collins about The Prodigy, they immediately offered to help us find quality graduates who had the skills to work on a fast-paced television show. It has been a great working relationship."

Have You Seen LCD Projection TV?
Have you seen LCD projection TV? No, really. I don't just mean a picture online or in an advertisement on a normal tube television, but have you actually seen projection TV? It really is completely different that what even the hardest of hardcore couch potatoes have ever witnessed. It is impossible to properly describe the effect of LCD projection TV, but roughly it is to normal TV what the CD is to the cassette tape. Leagues of difference, I say. It is the bee's knees, the cream in your coffee, the sprinkles on your donut, the...aw, enough. Let's cut to the chase.
