National Geographic Television has secured exclusive access to film the U.S. president's daily life over a four-month period for a docu-reality special that will air on PBS in November 2010, the U.K.'s C21 Media trade publication reported Tuesday.

National Geographic Television is at the Mipcom international media conference in Cannes, France this week looking for production partners for the project, according to C21.

"We started talking to the administration before he was elected in August last year, and we got permission last month," National Geographic Television executive Maryanne Culpepper told C21.

"We did our first shoot last week and I have about five minutes of rushes. It's amazing footage - he goes to New York, then he's having lunch with Bill Clinton, then he's running down the corridor with his dog in the White House. It's fantastic."

The 60-minute docu-reality special -- which is currently titled The White House: Through the Lens -- will continue to film until January and include "all pass" access to the Oval Office, Air Force One, Marine One and the First Lady Michelle Obama, C21 reported.
