Kidz-Eye-View
REALITY BASED TELEVISION SERIES 30 MIN.
Kidz-Eye-View is a 30-minute reality-based network or cable TV show about how "stuff" is made — from the U.S. Mint to chocolate chip mint — from a kid’s POV! The show is targeted at 8-12 year olds (and their parents — who would never admit to being just as curious about such stuff).
Kidz-Eye-View will be hosted by two hip, funny and techno-savvy teenage hosts, who take us to factories and other places around the country to learn how everyday "stuff" is made — from money to ice cream, CDs to roller coasters, aluminum foil to Razor Scooters, and any other thing you’ve ever asked yourself, "How do they make that?" The Kidz-Eye-View male host is a good-looking yet somewhat scraggly fifteen year old skateboarder type, who is both cool and a bit of a techno-geek. (He can always be found with some sort of neat gadget on hand like a 3Com PalmPilot, a Nintendo Game Boy, a wireless modem notebook computer, a mini digital camera, an e-mail watch, etc.). Our female host is a hip-looking girl who is a director "wanna-be" with her trusty Sony Handycam always nearby giving the viewing audience her POV through her lens.
