PBS cooking contest seeking entrants - Alton Telegraph
ST. LOUIS — Create TV is launching a national video contest designed to seek hosts for a digital lifestyle series on Nine PBS.
This year the Create Cooking Challenge: My Family's Recipe is focused on the rich, diverse heritage of Americans and the foods families pass down through generations. The winners will be awarded cash prizes and production equipment to host a 10-episode web series on CreateTV.com.
Sponsored by American Public Television, the Create Cooking Challenge: My Family's Recipe runs March 8 to April 5. The contest will be judged by Create staff and some of Nine PBS's most recognized hosts: Kevin Belton (Kevin Belton's Cookin' Louisiana), Pati Jinich (Pati's Mexican Table), Diane Kochilas (My Greek Table), Nick Stellino (Storytellers in the Kitchen) and Martin Yan (Yan Can Cook!).
The panel will judge submissions based on an entrant's demonstrated knowledge, ability to present ideas succinctly, overall telegenic appeal, uniqueness, and production values. The grand prize includes $4,000 cash and production equipment valued at $1,000 to complete a 10-episode web series for CreateTV.com. The second prize winner will receive $1,000 cash and the same production equipment valued at $1,000 to complete a three-episode digital series for CreateTV.com.
A complete list of judging criteria, official rules and a preview copy of the submission form are available at CreateTV.com/challenge.
