Lifetime Unscripted Development Pipeline
CASTING SEARCH

Lifetime and the NYTVF have teamed for the second annual Lifetime Unscripted Development Pipeline to challenge independent producers to find the next big Lifetime star. If you have an exceptional eye for talent and a passion for non-scripted TV, this is the competition for you. This competition is FREE to enter.

Twenty-five semi-finalists will be reviewed by the network with five finalists receiving development funding to produce additional tape. Finally, one winner will receive $10,000 and an opportunity to work with Lifetime Programming to produce a pilot presentation of their winning submission.

Lifetime Creative Brief:
From the cut-throat world of junior dance competitions to the hallowed halls of fashion's elite, real world characters dominate the television landscape and we're looking for the next big thing. Help us find the next reality star or cast. Preferably a woman, but men are welcome! It all depends on what they are and what they DO!

What we're looking for:
Casting tapes (between 2-4 minutes in length) that highlight unique, larger-than-life individual or individuals with a specific business or skill or a unique set of circumstances that makes them unforgettable.

Technical and production savvy is helpful by not required - the most important element is capturing the "wow" factor in your subject(s) - even if it's by Skype chat.

DEADLINE: Monday, September 23, 2013
