“Exposure”: The new ZeD?

Okay, it’s actually nothing like ZeD,but for fans of the now-cancelled late-night show, they might find a lot to like in Exposure.

Exposure is a “multi-platform entertainment property” (gak! — read: TV show with engaging web site) that lets people share their short digital films. The best shorts compete for a grand prize.

While anyone can upload a video to YouTube, Exposure will let the community help program the TV show — by rating, sharing their comments, and voting for their favourite digital short films and videos. The most discussed, highly rated shorts will receive prime position online and will be evaluated by a jury of producers. Jury selected shorts then screen on television in a weekly showdown and a chance to go on to the Exposure Award finale - in which one digital film is declared as the winner of the grand prize, an online development deal worth up to $25,000. Showdown winners are determined by the audience’s online votes.

It will air every Sunday night at 11pm on CBC Television starting July 29. But its web site at cbc.ca/exposure is live now and will start collecting videos next month.
