Producer & Editor Ted Bourne Brings "The Circus" to Film Forum
Ted Bourne is a producer and editor, known for The First 48 (2004), The Circus: Inside the Greatest Political Show on Earth (2016) and Sports Detectives (2016). Coming to us on the precipice of this very controversial presidential election.
Ted Bourne has produced over 200 hours of television, has screened his work at the Sundance Film Festival and has been nominated for multiple awards, including for the International Documentary Association and the Television Critics Association. He gravitates towards verite documentary projects that allow him to immerse the viewer in an unfolding, dramatic story.
In 2016, Bourne turned his focus to the political world as one of the showrunners on Showtime’s groundbreaking fast-turnaround series The Circus: Inside the Greatest Political Show on Earth, where he helped figure out a way to make a polished, cinematic show on a super-fast weekly schedule. In the last couple of years, he also helped develop the New York Times series The Weekly for FX and Hulu, and helped adapt the hit podcast Slow Burn for Epix. But with the 2020 elections looming, he’s back in the cockpit on The Circus, which promises to be filled with drama and many narrative twist and turns!
