Stitch Media and Showcase.ca Seeking Fresh Talent for Web-Series

August 5, 2010 | Kimberly Dean | Posted in Calls for Submission > Interactive Industry

moderationtown

Calling all aspiring actors: STITCH MEDIA (www.stitchmedia.ca) and SHOWCASE (showcase.ca) are hosting an online, Canada-wide talent search for their new comedy web series, Moderation Town. Quirky, crude, and awkwardly self-aware, Moderation Town satirizes the worst of Internet culture by revealing how online attitudes affect average, normal people in the real world.

We want to hear the most creative, hilarious stories people have experienced online. It could be an awkward Facebook encounter, an odd Chatroulette conversation, or the most atrocious message board flamewar. It doesn’t even have to be true. We just want to see what stories people have and search out new and aspiring actors through this open casting call.

- Mark Mullane
Co-writer & Director of Moderation Town

The Deets!

THE WHAT: Searching for fresh, new talent to star in this upcoming six-part comedy web series. Aspiring actors are encouraged to upload a video submission of a funny or embarrassing 90-second anecdote about an online encounter, real or fictional, on the Moderation Town Talent Search YouTube channel (which can be reached via www.moderationtown.com).

THE WHEN: From July 30th to August 20th, 2010

THE PRIZE: Prizes will be awarded for the funniest and most popular audition videos on August 20th. The best auditions will be shortlisted for the chance to win an Apple iPad and a second audition that could lead to a part in the show, set to launch on showcase.ca in Fall 2010.

…why do I get the feeling the most embarrassing submission will be about a (first-and-last) Chatroulette experience?
