NBC’s The Office Wants To See Your Fanisode Dan Koelsch, June 13, 2010 Do you love The Office? Do you have a video camera? Well, then this contest is for you! NBC is letting fans recreate an episode of The Office, essentially creating a “fanisode”. You just film a part of the selected episode, “Murder”, then upload it to NBC.com. The episode is split into 86 tiny segments, so there are a lot of scenes to choose from, plus it should be easy enough with the limited length. The clips submitted can be live action, animation, or whatever you feel would work. Clips and a transcript of each segment can be found on the Fanisode page, and those who participate can also win points as part of NBC’s new “Fan It” affinity program. Once all the submissions are in, NBC will pick the best and edit them together to make an entire fanisode for “Murder” that they will post online. We’ll of course share that video when it is released, so stay tuned. Watch the full episode below to see if you’d be interested. Contests Viral Marketing Fan ItNBCThe Office
