Celebrate the Web 5: Official Participants and Elements Announcement Details

Our Celebrate the Web 5 Participants are all locked and loaded and ready to make some web pilots of ultimate glory! For those who are fans of counting, you have probably noticed that there are 17 teams. The way registration worked was that the first 15 teams to submit their application and registration fee where in (we wanted to do first-come/first-serve as we felt it was the fairest way of accepting participants). Well, we literally had 3 entry fees clear at almost the same time for the last spot! So we decided to let them all in. We hope no one minds!

And now, the participants of CTW5 (listed by Team Leader followed by Team Name in no particular order):

–Jeff Ketcham: The Infamous McKinley

The team leaders are already hard at work gathering their teammates and resources but they know that no writing or actual production can start until the Elements Announcement. This year we’ll be broadcasting the announcement from one of our favorite sites, theStream.tv, home to over 1400 hours of fabulous programming including the Weakly News, featuring Iliza Shlesinger (winner of Last Comic Standing). We will be broadcasting the announcement live from theStream.tv’s awesome studio on Wednesday, November 2nd at 10 AM PST / 1 PM EST. We’ll also take that time to answer any last minute questions anyone has about the event. So please join us at theStream.tv (we’ll also embed the show here for your viewing pleasure as well) and help up cheer on our CTW5 participants as they embark on their creative journeys!
