Want to Have Fun, Make Money and Get Your 3 Minutes of
Worldwide Fame?
ATTENTION:
NixTheNews
is looking for Amateur News Reporters for
another show
we're going to add shortly, called
NixTheNews2
(news from all
ages)
Git yer video
camera out 'cause NixTheNews talent scouts are
looking for amateur "street reporters" to provide short news
stories for the NixTheNews2
newscasts. We have the platform where people come to watch
Internet news, you provide the news. Ya never know,
maybe you've got what it takes to become the next Internet
News Celebrity. But then, maybe that's
something you already know.
Fun and
Fame? Well, you should have fun for sure.
Fame? Who knows, maybe, if you're good enough. We're
looking for amateur street reporters for our other
newscast on NixTheNews.com that features:
Teen News, College News, Other News (from Kids of All
Ages to Talking Animals)
and Senior News. This newscast is called
NixTheNews2 and it's all about YOU.
This is "your" newscast. We feature one news
story everyday and also archive the rest so the world can see
your news talent at any time. The news stories can
be straight or funny. Since NixTheNews.com
is a family-friendly website, they must be clean (no profanity,
obscenity,
hate, nudity, etc). These reports can run from 30
seconds to as long as 3 minutes (maximum). You can
do your report for NixTheNews2 from behind a desk,
or out on the street, back alley, cow pasture, or even the top
of the Empire State Building while interviewing King Kong.
We don't really care, as long as it's moral, ethical and legal.
We just want you to have fun and the world
to enjoy your news story.
Here's how you can make a little moola too.
OK, this is not going to make you rich, far from it.
But, every time somebody watches your newscast and then
clicks on the advertisement at the end of it, you earn a little
money. This is only for news we show on the
NixTheNews2
newscasts, or wherever else
your news is watched. Every time any
of our visitors watch your newscast and click on the
"advertisement" at the end of it (the
advertisement is "automatically" placed and displayed at the end
of your newscast. Details in a minute),
you earn
a little money. We can't say how much, since an outside
company called "Revver" determines that, but if your newscasts
are good and enough people watch them, it can be some nice extra
money. The more newscasts you do, the more chance you have
of making more money.
Here's
what you need to do. First, you need to think
of a fun or interesting news story that you can do in as little
as 30 seconds but not going over 3 minutes total. Then,
grab your video camera and a friend (or trusty tripod) and shoot
your news report. Make sure the lighting and sound are
of decent quality. Note: Even though you may be an
"amateur," we still expect the finished news story to be edited
(if needed) so it looks half-way decent and represents you
and NixTheNews in a good light, and so people
regularly return for more news.
IMPORTANT: You must
end your newscast by saying,
"This is (your name) reporting for NixTheNews.com."
Make sure you include the "dotCOM" part after saying
NixTheNews. (
Do not mention the # "2," just say
"NixTheNews.com." )
Next,
you'll need to set up a free affiliate account at
www.revver.com. (We
cannot guide you on how to do this stuff, although it's actually
pretty simple. You'll have to figure it out yourself or
get help from some 12 year old since they can run circles around
most of us adults when it comes to computer related stuff).
It will take you only a few minutes and you only have to do this
once. You'll be uploading your news video from your
computer and they'll be adding a "commercial" at the end of it.
This is how you make the money. The advertiser pays them
and they pay you and NixTheNews. You'll make 40% as the
video artist (news reporter) and NixTheNews
will make 20% for advertising and showing your news video on the
NixTheNews.com website) The Revver
website will explain the details on how this all works and how
they pay you for visitors watching the advertisement at the end
of your video ("Your" NixTheNews2 newscast
in this case) we show on the NixTheNews.com
website. It's a really great business advertising model,
one we think will catch on with the other "big-boy" video
websites (you know who we mean). By
the way, we can not suggest that our visitors (viewers)
click on the ads at the end of your newscast, many of them will
just do it naturally, however. You are paid directly from Revver.com for every ad that is clicked on from your
newscast. NixTheNews does not touch the
money your earn. We just play your news video, at no cost to
you.
Next,
after you upload your cool news video to Revver, they will
provide you with a "code" that's shown next to your uploaded
video. You need to click the link that says, "Grab
Code." Use the "Flash using JS"
code. Copy and paste it in an email and send it to:
news2@nixthenews.com.
Please type: (
NIXTHENEWS2 STORY
) as the "subject-line" of your email, in ALL CAPS as
shown. We'll take it from there.
So, if you're
interested in having some fun, being seen by the world,
and maybe making a little extra money too, git yer news videos to
us ASAP. It'll be a blast and who knows, maybe you're a
news star waiting to be discovered.
And if you're really
good, maybe you can become a regular on
NixTheNews.com.
DISCLAIMER and RULES: Sorry, but with all the
news videos submitted, we can not guarantee that your submitted
newscast(s) will make it on the NixTheNews2
newscast. We will do our best, however, to get it
air-time. And, we can't
guaranteed fame and fortune either. Ya think? By the
way, you can not have any "commercials" or promote any
products in your newscast. And remember, all news stories must be clean, just like real TV
news. Only with your help, our NixTheNews2 will be much cooler.
