Judging: Episodes will be judged on a combination of Youtube channel views, ratings & comments, originality, storyline, production value, acting, action, and whether or not it makes us laugh. Submissions will also be judged by a panel of professional judges from the entertainment industry including writers, producers, directors and stunt coordinators (Note: exact panel may change, subject to their professional commitments).

Prizes: Top entries will receive global recognition and eternal glory in the form of featured episode placement on The Hunted official website, as well as Youtube, Facebook, and Itunes podcast, and possible screening at 2009 ComicCon in San Diego. The top 3 entries will additionally receive a cash prize of $1000 for first place, $500 for second place, and $250 for third place. (See, we told you there'd be profit)
