Since it's debut in 2000, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation has been one of the most popular television shows in both the United States and around the world. Now, for the first time, the secrets of CSI are revealed as actors/researchers David Berman and Jon Wellner take you inside the hit forensic drama.

 
 


In 2008 David and Jon created Hollywood's first professional entertainment research company, aptly named Entertainment Research Consultants (ERC). They have consulted for more than a dozen different TV shows including CSI: Miami, Bones, Rizzoli & Isles and Drop Dead Diva.

Jon and David will detail the exciting process of how each episode of procedural television is created, from the

story's conception in the writers room all the way through post production and finally on to your television screen. You'll learn how CSI and others shows are researched and view excerpts that illustrate how that information is incorporated into each episode.
Other topics of discussion include:
Behind the scenes stories about your favorite episodes.
Science vs. entertainment and the so-called "CSI effect"
A comparison of the fictional Universal Studios set with a real crime lab in Vegas
Q&A on researching and acting on the show
