The CW, Workshop Creative and PromaxBDA Present: “Making the Cut IV”

Think you have what it takes to work in TV? Think you know your favorite show better than anyone? Now’s your chance to prove it! The CW is offering college students the opportunity to create a non-traditional trailer for one of the The CW’s hit shows and have it air on TV and CWTV.com!

If you are a college student, "Making the Cut “ is challenging you to create a killer trailer that could jump start your creative career by winning an Unpaid internship at The CW Television Network. Did we mention your spot could air on TV? That’s right, your trailer airing on one of the biggest television networks on the planet. Does it get any better than that?

With today’s ever-changing media outlets, viewers are seeking out compelling and original content. The traditional way of promoting a television show is changing. Viewers and fans have an overwhelming passion for their favorite programs, and are generating their own trailers, commercials, video blogs, and personal content. This is where you come in!

The creative objective of this competition (and don’t forget this is a competition) is to put together a piece of non-traditional promotion that captures the essence of one of the following shows:

Gossip Girl
90210
Supernatural
The Vampire Diaries

To participate in Making the Cut, you'll need to register and create a profile. Once you've done that, you'll be able to download footage from the show you've selected, read some valuable advice from TV marketing professionals, and learn about companies that are making their music libraries and their roster of voice-over talent available to you for this project.

The deadline for submissions has been extended to 6pm PST, Tueday, June 8!

Contestants must be 18 years of age or older and a legal U.S. resident to be eligible.
