A new TV series now in development is looking for compelling stories about the successes and failures of meeting people online. Co-produced by Marc Weiss, the creator of the award-winning PBS series P.O.V., and former colleagues of Peter Jennings, the series will be built around first-person stories (about a range of topics) gathered online.
A prototype for the series will focus on everything from dating to mating to hooking up — from the most inspiring to the most horrifying — and how the Internet has transformed the quest for relationships, as well as the people who’ve tried it. Stories can be submitted to www.meeting-stories.org
The first-of-its-kind multimedia project was created by Web Lab www.weblab.org, an online laboratory designed to use the Web to engage people in new ways on a wide range of public and private issues, in collaboration with The Documentary Group (www.thedocumentarygroup.com), a production company founded by Kayce Freed Jennings and other core members of PJ Productions following the death of their colleague and partner, legendary broadcaster Peter Jennings.
