On the Lot

On the Lot is a reality tv competition developed by directors Steven Spielberg (The Color Purple) and Mark Burnett (Are we there yet) where chosen filmmakers compete in certain movie tasks until everybody is eliminated and one person wins a deal with DreamWorks Studios.

Although On the Lot focuses more on drama, like the conflicts between the competitors, I still think it gives newbies an idea of what filmmaking is like, and shows you examples of good films and bad films.

The judges, didn't seem to give criticism for the competitors' works; they just said "I love it, it's awesome" or "I don't think that's good".

But other than that, I think it's a pretty good show for those who are interested in directing films.

On the Lot shows on Dubai One on Saturdays at 12:30 KSA, which is 12:45 in Sudan.

If you're interested, you can check the schedule on the Dubai One website.
