Reality TV: The First Ever Exclusive Hip-Hop TV Host Competition.
Original urban themes undertone this unique and extremely revealing, TV show host competition. The show opens with a behind the scenes look at the preparation process for each episode. Win your own TV show.com is a 30-minute to 1-hour Reality TV program where average aspiring people join a website and compete to become TV personalities.
Their tasks could include anything from announcing music videos, to performing interviews and creating entertainment news segments. The winners will receive jobs hosting 13 week programs and they will have the opportunity to continue hosting subsequent seasons. The outcome is, they will be thrust into the limelight where they will begin a career in television.
Contestants must join the website, where they display their Public Photo Profile. All contestants Profiles will be maintained in Win Your Own TV Show's searchable database. There will be multiple contests and continuous television programs as people continue to join the database. This contest has no set ending date; it is currently classified as ongoing. Contestants are allowed to compete for a minimum of two (2) years.
Registration opened May 15th, 2004, but the actual television broadcasts are scheduled to begin in Fall 2004. This is when Win Your Own TV Show is set to purchase airtime from Fox and UPN affiliate stations across the U.S.
Any other interested television networks are encouraged to contact WinYourOwnTVshow for programming. Since WinYourOwnTVshow is not a syndicated network program, they have the freedom to air on any station they wish.
Jennings said, “The concept of WinYourOwnTVshow.com is simple. The more people that join the website, the more television markets our show can expand to. This is an honest website and you have nothing to fear by joining. We charge a one time fee to create your online picture profile, and that money primarily goes back into the show for expansion."
He continued, "Many people don't understand how we can air on UPN or Fox affiliate stations and we are not syndicated. Well, the truth is we independently purchase our airtime and it allows us a lot of freedom and creative control. Unless a Network would allow us to maintain creative control, I don't think we would jump on any bandwagons."
"I feel at this stage of the process we need the news media to interact with us more. Because what we are doing has never been done before."
He went on to say, “I decided to make my move on the entertainment industry this year. I have a soft place in my heart for average people with extraordinary dreams. I want to become a conduit between common people and television, radio, internet media and print magazine. I decided to focus on a few great concepts to begin with. So I created a TV show that is Internet supported for broad access, avant-garde and I think it is going to be the talk of the whole nation. It’s actually a cyclical process which creates TV shows. Within 2-3 years it creates a whole TV Network.”
The WinYourOwnTVshow.com database will also serve as an Entertainment Industry talent pool. It will be made available to select major Networks, Production Companies, Casting Agencies, Model Agencies, Record Companies and other Media Outlets.
The Executive Producers of Win Your Own TV Show are known as “The Cipher”. Their previous TV and Radio shows were called, "The Cipher Show". They have worked behind the scenes playing music videos for Record Labels such as Def Jam, Interscope, Universal Records, Legit Ballin Records, Tommy Boy Records, Dopehouse Records, Slip and Slide Records and Rap-A-Lot Records. They have also collaborated with Flyin Brian and The Morning Show on 105.5 The Beat Jams, A Clearchannel Radio Station.
From 2001-2002 The Cipher produced music video programs on UPN 8 of Southwest Florida. The show was eventually canceled due to lack of funding. During that same time Jennings began having conversations with Gail Northern, Director of BET Programming. However, negotiations fell through for unknown reasons. From 2003 to 2004 Jennings independently produced hip-hop radio programs on WYCA 102.3 FM, a Crawford Broadcasting Company. He also shopped aspiring hip-hop artists to Def Jam, Interscope, Universal Records, Shady Records and Aftermath Entertainment.
Jennings independently purchases airtime from major network affiliate stations, in order to achieve the same effect as syndicated programming. His website and TV shows utilize cutting-edge technology, consisting of computer graphics, animation, and other innovative concepts for enhanced programming.
Add top 20 music videos and a dose of “Reality Mania” and you have a very innovative approach to Hip-Hop /R & B reality TV. Steven Jennings aka “Mikey Jukes” plans to expose aspiring talent to the Mass Media and it appears to be a wonderful idea.
