PILOT TREATMENT: Shattering Conventions
In 2014 and in conjunction with his book of the same name, journalist, personality, wrestler, and author Bob Calhoun set out to pitch a television series about his convention shenanigans. I put together this five page pilot treatment sent to prospective producers via email. These efforts culminated in the series being picked up online at Meetings Today. The Brony episode is a personal favorite.
