Get your hometown on One Tree Hill
Ever thought your hometown would make the perfect setting for a television show? Well One Tree Hill has started up a new contest to do just that… film an episode of One Tree Hill in the town you live, as well as making a guest appearance on the show. Not only could you get yuor show featured, if you have ever wanted to get a start in show business, this could be a chance to get a jump on it, without having to go the somewhat trashy reality show route to do it.
The full scoop from the CW press release:
Through January 7, 2007, One Tree Hill fans can submit 30-second videos of themselves explaining why their city would make the perfect backdrop for an upcoming episode of the series. Videos can be submitted to The CW website (www.cwtv.com/sunkist).
“One Tree Hill has always had a special relationship with its fans, and has also been very forward-thinking in blurring the lines of reality and fiction,” said Mark Schwahn, creator and executive producer of One Tree Hill. “Taking the cast to the winner’s hometown and putting that town and winner into the world of Tree Hill is unprecedented, and we’re thankful that Sunkist is helping us make this ambitious event a reality.”
“With some of the most passionate fans in television, we try to do something special for them every year, giving them a chance to interact with the show through the music tour and the mall tours. This season, Mark Schwahn came up with his most innovative idea yet by taking One Tree Hill on the road and into one fan’s hometown,” said Joe Davola, executive producer of One Tree Hill.
The CW, Sunkist and One Tree Hill creator/executive producer Mark Schwahn and executive producer Joe Davola will review all of the submissions and select one winner. During the month of February 2007, the cast and crew of One Tree Hill will travel to the winner’s hometown to film the episode which will air during the current season of the series. The winner will also make a guest appearance in the episode.
Not only will this make for a great contest, I am sure some of the entries will wind up on a special features menu of this season’s DVD set.
