Pietown Prodctions, a Los Angeles-based television production company, is in the early stages of developing a documentary series about families that have multiple children with Aspergers syndrome or Autism. They are currently seeking families that might be interested in participating.
They believe this show could be a great opportunity to shed light on misconceptions surrounding an individual’s ability to live a normal life with this disorder(s). They say their intent is to produce a thoughtful and respectful series that will lead to a greater understanding and sensitivity about Aspergers and/or Autism through the real-life perspectives of the family members featured.
If you are interested in participating contact: Nina Corbett, Development Casting Producer, at nina_corbett@pietown.tv.
