Gorilla-TV: NZ's very first interactive TV show is looking for submissions at DVinfo.net

Logan McMillan · March 5th, 2009, 11:39 PM

After many months of development Gorilla-TV is launching this month on Juice TV and Gorilla-TV.com

Gorilla-TV is a unique blend of old-school static television and new age web interaction.

Every month people from anywhere in the country can submit a 4 minute television pilot. The pilots go onto Gorilla-TV.com where the public vote on them.

There may dozens of good pilots but there can only be 5 shows 'green-lit' to air.

The prize, if you make the Top 5, is for your show at the end of the month, to play NATIONWIDE on Juice TV.

But it doesn't stop there. The following month winners go on to make a 2nd episode of their series while people who didn’t make the Top 5 scrap their idea and start fresh with a new one.

People can make that TV show they've always dreamt about, and if it makes it to the Top 5 thousands of people across the country will be watching. In our books there is no better prize than that.

They could become the next Fonzie. They could gain a cult following. All on a shoestring budget from their backyard.

The first submission deadline is at midnight 31st March.

Go to Gorilla-TV.com for all the details and to see the television commercial currently running on Juice TV.

**** I just read the marketing clause from Chris.....I hope this is ok as its free to enter and we are producing the show, website and competition for free as well - just wanted to do something fun :) ****

Is there any chance you could hit that "Contact Us" button at the bottom of the screen and update the mods as to where, exactly, in NZ you are?

Looks like an interesting idea, will check it out.
