Such a very nervous mouse tonight
15 years ago
I and my freinds just made a channel 101 submission... its due the 23rd tomorrow by whatever time the mail arrives. I just overnighted it at the post office, which was more expensive than I thought, but it just makes me so nervous having the submission turned in. We just tried to make a space adventure in the spirit of Channel 101 and even had an awesome spaceship battle and the space bounty hunters fought space ninjas and it is full of drunken hilarity and I really really really hope it makes it. We stayed up all night adding some last minute finishing touches when we really should have just mailed it off earlier last week probably cause it was pretty much done then, but the added audio and effects might help it a bit.
For those of you unfamiliar, www.channel101.com is a website that has a contest for internet webisodes every month. Every month you can make a pilot, or as many pilots you can make actually, and then you submit the pilot(s) to be judged. the judges choose five new pilots, out of all the ones that are submitted, to go against the episodes that are getting renewed every month, called the prime time shows. If you make it to having your pilot shown on the site then people vote on whether they like your pilot or if they like one of the pre-existing shows that take up one of the five prime time spots.
If you get voted into prime time, then you make another episode of your series for the following month. If you do not get the votes to make it into prime time then your show goes into the rejected pilots section. But before you can become either they have to pass judgement on your video to see if it will even make it into the running for becoming either a prime time show or a failed pilot.
Some famous shows have come from this site; shows like Most Extraordinary Space Investigations, The Bu, Sock Baby, and Kicked in the Nuts. And famous stars have done shows for this site; like Dan Harmon, Rob Schrab, Sara Silverman, Jack Black, and Drew Carey to name a few.
Most all of the shows that make it to this site are either extremely hilarious or extremely awesome or both.
It seems over complicated from my explanation and might be easier to understand just by going to channel101.com actually. But its all very cool in the end, even if we don't get in, though hopefully we do, even though there is very stiff competition from the current shows taking the prime time spots already.
Still... Nervous... Mouse...
