BORN AT REALSCREEN: THE STORY OF ‘ALONE’

Over the course of its 25-year history, untold numbers of projects have been born at the Realscreen Summit. One such project is the self-shot survivalist competition series, Alone, which has been a critical and ratings success for A+E Network’s The HISTORY Channel since its debut in 2015, and has since aired in multiple territories with local adaptations. Here, you’ll hear from production and network executives who will take us behind the scenes of how this unscripted hit evolved from development to pitch to production, to multi-territory sensation.
