Inventor-friendly TV Show - Casting Call
The casting call will soon close for the first episode of a new inventor-friendly TV show for a major cable channel. They are seeking food-related inventions: growing, processing, storing, serving, disposing, etc. Participants could score a licensing deal with one of the nation’s top manufacturers, with professional guidance along the way.
Only 3 requirements:
- Invention should be at least patent-pending.
- A working prototype to show off.
- Outgoing personality, comfortable appearing on TV.
If this sounds like you or somebody you know, contact the Casting Director directly at [email protected] as soon as possible. Casting will soon close for the first episode.
Response so far has been great. This is a real show, by a reputable, inventor-friendly production company who values your privacy and intellectual property. Your information will not be shared with anyone unaffiliated with the program. See www.luckydogfilm.com to view their previous work.
Patrick Raymond (former UIA Executive Director and ICKC Contest Judge will be co-hosting the show along with Steve Greenberg (the “Innovation Insider”).
Makers Fair - June 24-26, 2011
Maker Faire: Kansas City, a big community event being organized by Union Station for June 24-26. Makers Faire invites makers, crafters, inventors, food artisans, artists, scientists, etc., to show what they make (free booth for the Makers) to crowds who come to learn about these interesting products, new inventions. If this is something you would be interested in posting on your announcements, we can get the details to you. The event is still taking applications for Makers, so we’re trying to get the word out to anyone who might like to exhibit. Maker applications are scheduled to close on April 29th. Let me know if you are interested in learning more. We expect to have 100-150 makers demonstrating their creations, and generally these events draw crowds of thousands to experience them. Commercial vendors (makers and/or vendors who want to sell their product at their event will pay a $100 exhibit fee since they are selling products).
