V1 ENTERTAINMENT FILMS CASTING ADVERTISER SPONSORS
TO STAR IN PROFESSIONAL MOTORSPORTS-THEMED TV SERIES, "THE RIDE"
Fast drivers, cool cars, beautiful women and loads of prominent sponsors are integral to the appeal of Professional Motorsports. There's no other sport like Professional Motorsports, where the advertisers become so entrenched in the action and have such dynamic behind-the-scenes roles. That's why, to maintain authenticity, V1 Entertainment Films is conducting advertiser/sponsors auditions to star in its new Professional Motorsports-themed television series, "The Ride." Acclaimed film and television actor/director Giancarlo Esposito of AMC's "Breaking Bad" has agreed to direct the project, which is being targeted as a Spring 2011 network replacement series. Veteran WGA screenwriter Tony Sommo has been tapped to write the script.
"The Ride" is a character-driven story about the exploits of a tight-knit group of drivers from different worlds set in the Lake Norman area of North Carolina, north of Charlotte, often called Race City USA.
Scripted advertiser sponsorships are available in the following categories:
Checkered Flag: Major scriptline, visual representation of product/brand throughout and inclusion in all off-screen promotion opportunities (packaged goods company, automotive, mobility provider or tool company preferred)
Green Flag: Visual representation and/or mention of product/brand in 1 – 3 scenes and multiple off-screen promotion opportunities
White Flag: Visual representation of product/brand on screen and inclusion in selected off-screen promotional opportunities
All Advertiser Sponsors will be announced upon final approval of pilot script at a gala media event in New York City.
