NORWALK, Conn., Jan. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Have a fresh spin on a reality TV show? Here's your chance to pitch it to the 'Hollywood Hitman' who pioneered the genre. Bass, has teamed up with Mark Burnett, creator of the mega hits The Survivor(TM)* and The Apprentice(TM)*, to inspire people to jump in and make their mark.
Through March 31, 2005, Bass' "Make Your Mark" promotion invites entrants to go to www.Bass.com to submit their idea for a reality TV show.
Based on the originality, creative execution and entertainment value of the concepts submitted, Bass will select three finalists -- one of whom will be awarded a cash prize of $10,000. All three finalists win the opportunity to meet with Mark Burnett in person this summer and hear from the master what makes great reality TV.
"The Bass drinker is one who is always reaching for greatness, aspiring to achieve his personal, professional and life goals. Who better than Mark Burnett, who created the cultural phenomenon of reality unscripted drama and whose new motivational book is entitled, Jump In, Even if You do Not Know How to Swim, to exemplify the brand's personality?" said Victor Melendez, Director of Marketing-European Brands, InBev USA, importer of Bass.
Burnett knows better than anyone that jumping into life with both feet first isn't always easy -- in his pursuit of success, he has taken countless chances and flirted with outrageous failure dozens of times. But in the long run, he notes, the rewards are so much greater for the risk.
