Nickelodeon is doing another shorts program! A number of great shows have come out of ther shorts programs; Fairly Odd Parents, Fanboy and Chum Chum and Adventure Time to name a few.

According to the site:

Animated shorts must be: comedic, character driven, and have kid appeal. We look for ideas that feature an original, funny lead character – with about 2 or 3 characters in total. Be prepared to show either through designs, thumbnail storyboards or script, how funny and unique your characters are.

You can read more about the Nickelodeon Shorts program at the link below.
