They have radically changed the landscape of popular entertainment and have brought hard science out of the dark recesses of the laboratory and into the zeitgeist of mass entertainment. Each and every one of these programs depends on the distillation of complicated scientific data into easily digestible plot points that are crucial to the production of procedural television. Chemistry\, biology\, mathematics\, the law and a wide array of forensic disciplines such as odontology\, entomology and DNA analysis among others\, take center stage in this unique\, often overlooked aspect of the creative process. \nFor the last 15 years\, David and Jon’s company\, Entertainment Research Consultants (ERC) has been providing this crucial service for the industry. They have consulted for more than twenty popular TV shows and film as well as a popular advertising campaign for Microsoft. \nIn this unique presentation\, Jon and David will detail the exciting process of how each episode of procedural television is created\, from the story’s conception in the writers room all the way through post-production and finally on to your television screen. You’ll learn how the world’s most popular TV shows are researched and view excerpts that illustrate how that information is incorporated into each episode. \n\nDavid Berman\n \nDavid Berman\, a Los Angeles native\, attended college at Georgetown University where he graduated \nMagna Cum Laude and Phi Beta Kappa.
