Twitch Holding Auditions for New Reality Game Show
Twitch is on the lookout for some up and coming streamers for a reality show called Stream On. They are specifically looking for streamers who are “right on the cusp of making streaming full-time a possibility.” The FAQ discourages applicants who are so inexperienced that they “might not benefit much from participating,” but also those who might be so well-known that they don’t need the exposure:
“Any partner can audition, but be advised that the selection committee will be more likely to choose smaller partners who they feel can benefit most from the additional exposure that Stream On can offer. LIRIK, if you’re reading this, please don’t apply.”
The show will premiere in March 2018 with a goal to elevate some of the best and brightest up-and-coming streamers. Starting today, Twitch Partners are invited to audition for participation. Video audition submissions are open now on the Twitch submission page, and full contest rules can be found here.
The plan is to have the contestants face challenges designed to test their skills at streaming, and they will be evaluated by a panel of judges. The contestants will compete each week from their home and it will take place across multiple channels. There will be a weekly show with a recap and elimination. Viewers in the chat channels will also help choose who advances or who is eliminated.
The grand prize will be $60,000, paid in $5,000 monthly increments in order to help the winner take their streaming career to the next level.
