> DEADLINE FOR PRODUCER PROPOSALS AND STATION RUNWAY SUBMISSIONS
> THURSDAY, NOV 10, 2011
>  
> Since our September 15th launch, more than 2000 unique visitors have checked out the Localore Station Runway and details for how to get aboard this new initiative. We'll bring more than $1 million in CPB funding to support 10 station-based producer-led teams that help stations "go outside" of their walls and traditional reporting routines to tell untold stories across multiple platforms.
> 
> If you'd like to be one one of our lead Localore producers, you must submit proposals for project ideas at Localore.net by the November 10th deadline. By that same deadline, stations hoping to serve as Localore incubators must produce 3-5 minutes of media to upload to our Station Runway, where we're showcasing the creative culture and aspirations of potential incubators. (Note:  the sooner you get your media up, the more eyeballs you'll attract.) Up to 30 lead producers and incubator stations will be selected by December 2nd and invited to submit a second-round proposal. Final teams will be announced by late January, and projects will begin launching in March.
