The second edition of Realscreen London is set to take place September 30 and October 1, at the fabulous London Marriott Hotel Grosvenor Square. The event builds on last year’s launch event, which brought together over 400 UK and international producers and global buyers of unscripted and factual entertainment, and the program has expanded to a full two days. The agenda is now online and we will have more speaker and session announcements on the way in the weeks ahead. Realscreen events are known for inspirational and timely content presented in an interesting variety of formats ranging from structured networking, to debates, keynotes and panel discussions including Talent Talk.

The right presenter can elevate a good program into a great one, but the relationship between talent, producer and network is one that requires extra care. Factor social media-savvy fans (and detractors) of those programs and presenters into the equation and it gets even more interesting. This session will look at the talent topic from myriad perspectives – examining how to find the right talent and successfully navigate the relationships to keep the show on track, and how to handle the ride if things go off the rails.
