MSN -NYTVF Video Submission Tips 

MSN Video is seeking video that’s impossible not to click on, impossible to stop watching, and impossibly satisfying at the end of each and every episode. MSN,  seeks to move beyond hosts standing in front of green screens, and videos offering tips and tricks about one thing or another.

What Video Does MSN Want? 

MSN is Looking For Video Submissions with:
  • Bold, fresh, buzz-worthy concepts that engage, entertain and capture viewers in 120 sec or less
  • Concepts with global appeal in English or without language
  • Series presenting stand-alone episodes with thematic through-lines, so viewers can enjoy single episodes without previous knowledge of story lines and/or characters
  • Well-produced and inescapable scripted or non-scripted series that uniquely specifically developed to be consumed within the timeframe allowed Don't just chop up a longer project!
  • All genres welcome, especially comedy, animation, non-scripted comedic formats, non-scripted anthology, inspiration, personality/info-tainment and gameshows 
  • Out-of-the-box 'click candy' - ideas that inspire socialization and attract new viewers 
  • Episodes with a clear 'hook' in the opening seconds with a pay-off in the final segment. What is the conclusion, the punch line, the reveal, or the lesson learned at the end of each episode that makes the users’ time spent worthwhile?
Have a few ideas? Great! You can submit as many entries as you like - it's free to enter!
