I came to your site because I remembered that you often promote to shama.tv to get ideas about how you are producing your show and here you are speaking to what I was exploring. Damian made some great points that I will consider in my developmental process. I would love to consult with someone about the broader branding for the show/higher level to ensure I am thinking in the right direction. Thanks for the info. Shama and congrats! Carol Shama,

The few times I appeared on TV, personality was furthest from everyone's mind. TV outlets are looking for expertise, stories, and perspectives or insights not being presented. But it must be considered interesting by a large segment of their audience. In my cases, the appearances were also in conjunction with images or scenes which, while compelling to see, needed dialog to explain or narrate. Perhaps Damian can expand on the "how-to's" during your appearance. Being too relaxed and animated can pose a threat to the finished production. Extreme volume changes in your voice, or moving around too much while talking is hard to shoot and doesn't present well. A more mellow and reflective mood, even if the material is funny, makes for a more successful outcome. Peter I agree completely.

Damian, how would you recommend positioning yourself to become that source for local news segments? Shama, how did you position yourself for the same? Stephen Wade Meaty content!

It's good to know that it's not necessary to become a "tv personality". Would be great to hear more on this topic. Very useful – thanks Shama and Damian!
