JJ Abrams (Lost TV series)  and others to judge Make a Fair Deal Video 
Contest! Got vid skills?
 
"How to win it? Produce a video of any genre about how you would get a fair 
deal made in the writers' strike."

"Three reasons why people should enter:
 
- The judges include an Oscar and BAFTA winning writer, and JJ Abrams (I 
don't think he's mentioned on the website, but he's judging). They're huge names.
 
- You're putting your work right under the noses (or most accurately, eyes 
and ears) of the creative Hollywood community. You couldn't ask for a more 
talented, diverse and important group of people to see something you make.
 
- United Hollywood's videos are into the millions of views in total on 
Youtube. If The CW launched your work, they would need a multi-million dollar 
advertising campaign to deliver probably a smaller audience that you're potentially 
going to get if you entry is good. Think about that for a second.
 
Basically, I see people all the time saying they want to write, direct, 
produce or star in something. This is about as good a platform as you're going to 
get. For serious. You don't even need to do it all yourself. Got a good idea, 
think you can write? Write something, find somebody online to direct and 
produce it. You get the picture.
 
There's a lot of talented people out there who struggle to find a platform 
into the industry. Here's a platform. Make something amazing with it, and you'll 
get noticed."
