Welcome to the self-submission page for the HBO PRODUCTION for parents and infants! Here’s a summary of the show:
Our show is a documentary project that will include both documentary participants and some performers for reenactment segments.
The episode we’re casting here has a couple of parents of tiny infants – hopefully you!
WHAT DO I NEED TO SUBMIT?
1. A photo of your face next to your baby’s face
2. A photo of yourself head to toe
3. A video (2-3 minutes long) introducing yourself and your baby – how are they doing? How are you holding up? What are you looking forward to doing with the baby when they’re older?
SUBMISSION LINK
Quick FAQ about the submissions link:
If you don’t fill out all required text fields + upload all required media, your submission will be rejected by the system.
It works best with Google Chrome on a Mac. It usually works with PCs phone / tablets as well, but we haven’t tested it extensively on those platforms.
If you are submitting long videos, the upload will take minutes. You should see a little “upload progress” indicator somewhere on the page.
You should get a confirmation of upload success, either a green banner along the top or a page that says “Submission Accepted!” You’ll also receive an email confirming receipt of your submission.
