THANKS FOR THE GREAT Q!

The producers of Take 3 wish to thank the 100+ attendees of our Open House BBQ on May 10th at our L.A. production offices! We had a blast meeting everyone and hope you all did too. A special thanks also to Cristianne Rojet and Vector International for their gracious hospitality. We've already been fielding inquiries about our "next event." And… Our next one will be the biggest of them all - The Take 3 Awards Ceremony this summer! The contestant films will be screened live, winners will be crowned, and we've also got a few others surprises up our sleeves for you! Remember - ALL applicants plus a guest are automatically invited to the awards ceremony. Stay tuned for more details!

 

WE'VE GOT APPLICATIONS!

Boy do we ever! We're quite happy - and sometimes a little freaked out - but mostly happy with the responses we've been receiving on your applications. The originality and "out of the box" thinking being demonstrated by Take 3 applicants is exciting and will make for a great pilot episode! Take 3 applicants are really representing a cross section of the film industry: ages 18-50, men, women, students, indie vets, and even established studio pros. All we can say is - How FUN the first phase of the competition will be, when the 3 producer contestants must choose their DP and director. What a selection!

 

TWO NEW HOSTS!

We're pleased to announce the addition of 2 hosts to the Take 3 pilot! As each team will be assigned their very own host, we now have the 3 diverse, talented, and experienced individuals to guide the contestants, and viewers, through the challenging vortex of - the game. Wendy Kamenoff and Adrian Ursu!! Please read their bio's now up on the Partners Page.

 

TAKE 3 OPEN HOUSE

Come meet the Take 3 Crew and learn more about the game. Pick up an application. Drop off an application. Bring something to throw on the barbeque. Open bar. MAY 10th 2003 - 3PM to 6PM at Smorgasbord Productions, 1610 S. La Cienega Blvd. Los Angeles, CA.

SCHEDULE CHANGE AND DEADLINE EXTENSION

After great consideration we have decided to push back the date of our contest to July. The shoot itself will run from the morning of Friday, July 11th to the evening of Sunday, July 13th. The application process has also been extended to June 1st 2003. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause but we felt that the competition needed additional preparation to make it as good as we possibly could.

NEW FAQ PAGE

We have added a Frequently Asked Questions page to answer all your questions. For now it also lists all NON-CONTESTANT Crew Positions. CHECK IT OUT!

OUR OFFICE ADDRESS

We do have a Los Angeles office located at 1610 S. La Cienega Blvd. It is not practical to send mail to us here so that is why we use the P.O. box for applications.
