Title: Mario Kart 8 TV Competition
Post by BraxtanFILM on 06/10/15 at 11:19:27

I'm a TV producer putting together a MK8 competition for next month. If you can get to Los Angeles and aren't camera shy, let's chat!

The show will will shoot in Los Angeles July 7th through 9th, and air on a major network in August.

This show is aimed at children and teens, so a glowing personality is a huge plus.

Please get back to me if you are interested and we can take this to the next level.

Could you please explain in more detail what is going to happen? No one has a clue what to do, or any information on it, plus we don't even know who you are? It would just be helpful. Thanks.

Totally. We're looking for 4 "pro" MK8 players (or at least, really really good) who would be good on camera.

You'll be working with 2-3 amateur players, coaching them, and helping them compete against 3 other teams in a tournament style game.

Me? I'm just some dude who plays video games and produces tv shows (and a few horror films). I figured these boards might be a good place to find a couple gamers.

Well, you didn't even say the exact location, details, gameplay settings, what channel it's airing on, nothing.

You basically just said "Hey, like Mario Kart 8? Are you good at it? Wanna be on TV? Then come to LA!"

We need details :P

My original post states that it will shoot July 7-9 in Los Angeles (Probably Glendale/Burbank--we're still working on the stage specifics).

As for the network...I'm not at liberty to say at the moment. But know that Nintendo is officially involved. We're just putting out feelers for gamers. That's where I/you come in.

If you want to seriously discuss this, please feel free to email me. hank AT mandtbros.com

Although I will still check this thread every day as well. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

If I would be able to come I would help, I am not the best MK8 player but you could consider me somewhat "pro" as for casual players there would be no difference in racing against me or the worlds best.

I think this is a great idea, I would have loved to do such stuff for MKW, btw is this show airing on youtube as well? Would like to watch it, could be kinda interesting
