ESP for Do It Yourselfers ESP for Do It Yourselfers This summer, Atlanta area do it yourselfers will be starring in their own segments on the new DIY cable network. "Showoffs" showcases homeowners, craftspeople, and their personal stories of accomplishment in the areas of gardening, decorating, crafts, and home remodeling. Esther+Schipp Promotion is providing turnkey production for the project, from selecting subjects to producing the on-camera segments and designing graphics. Throughout the summer, ESP camera crews will be traveling around the metro Atlanta area interviewing participants for segments that will begin airing in September. ESP partner and project manager Dan Brown will post the two minute pieces at Crawford Communications. "Showoffs" is the brainchild of DIY executive producer Jim Lynagh who is overseeing the launch of the network for Scripps Howard Broadcasting, whose other cable ventures include HGTV and Food Network.

To capture the mission of the Washington Bureau of CNN and the scope of the network's busiest bureau, Turner Broadcasting Sales called upon Esther+Schipp Promotion. ESP and Peter Mullet Films of Baltimore teamed up to film behind the scenes and on-camera interviews with some of CNN's most notable correspondents and anchors. Bureau Chief Frank Sesno, interviewer Larry King, Anchor Judy Woodruff, and Chief White House Correspondent Wolf Blitzer were among those who fielded questions from ESP Partner John Schipp. Project Managers Marion Hamilton and Risa Meynarez supervised the filming for TBS. ESP partners Jon Esther and Brown will complete editing of the presentation at Crawford Communications for a continuing series of features entitled "CNN: New Era."
