About On The Fly TV - OTFT

On The Fly TV (OTFT) is an ad-hoc television short about what ever and nothing.  Typically this show is
only 9 1/2 minutes long and features guests from around the community that have interesting stories,
jobs, events or that simply want to get on TV.

We do have on occasion, longer episodes such as a 33 min one in June 2008 with the Beaverton
Police Chief David Bishop and a few hour long episodes such as the one with Mrs. Oregon
International 2008 winner Debra Gilmour and David Wu's running mate Mark Welzycko as well as the
Executive Recruiter David Rippentrop covering resume mistakes and the infamous CJ Matthews
covering motivational speaking.   

We have taped it live, pre-recorded, in the studio, out side, in offices, parks and piece-mealed them
together.  We hope to hit a large majority of common locations and styles during 2008.

What is the point you may ask?  Well there is 3 main reasons for the show.       

1. Dennis Gleason is trying to gain experience that will assist him in more effectively and professionally
entertain.  We can all practice lines and act to certain degree, but to be able to jump on camera with no
more than a concept and improv a show, doesn't necessarily require talent, but does require practice.    

2. There are several folks that have interests in being on TV.  Even if only for a few minutes with not
much more than a story to tell their kids and friends.  For some musical artists, gives them a chance to
have their music heard and with TV credits that will potentially help them in their career pursuits.  Finally
number

3, there is a need for the TV station to have 10 min or less content so they can fill in holes in their
programming schedule.   So why not?
