How to win it? Produce a video of any genre about how you would get a fair deal made in the writers' strike.

Quote:

Three reasons why people should enter:

- The judges include an Oscar and BAFTA winning writer, and JJ Abrams (I don't think he's mentioned on the website, but he's judging). They're huge names.

- You're putting your work right under the noses (or most accurately, eyes and ears) of the creative Hollywood community. You couldn't ask for a more talented, diverse and important group of people to see something you make.

- United Hollywood's videos are into the millions of views in total on Youtube. If The CW launched your work, they would need a multi-million dollar advertising campaign to deliver probably a smaller audience that you're potentially going to get if you entry is good. Think about that for a second.

Basically, I see people all the time saying they want to write, direct, produce or star in something. This is about as good a platform as you're going to get. For serious. You don't even need to do it all yourself. Got a good idea, think you can write? Write something, find somebody online to direct and produce it. You get the picture.

There's a lot of talented people out there who struggle to find a platform into the industry. Here's a platform. Make something amazing with it, and you'll get noticed.
