Auction Network is giving interested fans two ways to audition:
1. Show up to the live open casting call which will take place on Dec. 30, 2008, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. (PST) on the patio of the Café Tu Tu Tango Restaurant located on the Universal CityWalk at 100 Universal City Plaza in Universal City, CA 91608.

Post the video to your YouTube channel and send an e-mail to contest@auctionnetwork.com. Or, submit the video through the Auction Network Battlestar Galactica contest group channel (www.youtube.com/group/ANBattlestarContest).
The casting directors will check it out and if it blows their fraking minds, they will add your audition video to the YouTube favorites section along with all the videos Auction Network collected during the on-site casting call.
The judges will rate the videos on a 1-10 point scale rating with 1 point being the lowest score and 10 points being the highest score, based on the following equally weighted criteria: (1) expertise in BSG trivia and all other matters BSG, (2) ability to articulate your thoughts and deliver commentary clearly, (3) capability to express yourself with brevity, and (4) good camera presence (audience appeal).
All video submissions are due by 11:59 p.m. (CST) on Jan. 5, 2009.
