It was announced recently that MTV Networks' Comedy Central and iFilm will be partnering to put on a contest for comedy-creator's who think they got what it takes. Those participating will have a chance to win a development deal to produce a series on Comedy Central's MotherLoad, their broadband channel.
Your material can be submitted in original one-to five-minute pilots online from May 22 through August 24 at comedycentral.com. Any type of format, "from live action to animation to sketch to hidden-camera, is acceptable for the competition."
Comedy Senior VP of Original Programming and Development Lou Wallach said in a statement, “We get throngs of emails and calls telling us, 'I have the best show for Comedy Central.' Well, now is their chance to prove it."
The staff of Comedy Central will review entries and choose three pilots that will be shown online each week, with viewers of the material ranking the three. Those that win will keep going on in the competition.
The grand-prize winner will be chosen by a Comedy Central panel of judges.
