Canada's CBC Launches 'Canadian Idol' for Online Video Directors


All Tasty on the Western Front,a current Exposure

Canadian network CBC will be premiering the first episode of Exposure this Sunday, reports The Globe and Mail. The show seeks to discover the country's best online filmmakers with a YouTube-esque video posting process.


The very brave (or very foolish) can post videos on the Exposure website. Results will be broadcast on television and will air every Sunday until Labor Day.

"It's putting the tools in the hands of the artists," said CBC producer Sean Embury.
Producers select the best videos, but viewers will also have the opportunity to vote on their favorites. The winner will receive $25,000 and a chance to work on a new series for CBC.

The website boasts 2,000 registered users and 800 featured videos since its launch, five weeks ago.
