Everyday Edisons Casting Calls in Washington, D.C.

Bouncing Brain Productions is coming to Washington, D.C., to give the region's residents the opportunity to try and transform their ideas into real, marketable products through the new public television series, Everyday Edisons.

Washington, D.C., will host the show's only casting call in the northeast region. Participants simply bring their prototype, sketch or concept to the Ronald Reagan Building & International Trade Center (1300 Pennsylvania Ave.) on Saturday, January 20. Registration begins at 7 a.m. and those who arrive by 1 p.m. will be guaranteed an interview before a panel of judges. Auditions are free to the public and registration forms are available at the Reagan Building the day of the event, or at www.BouncingBrainProductions.com.

To educate America about what it truly takes to bring a product to market, the show follows ten ordinary people – "Everyday Edisons" – as their ideas are refined, produced, marketed and sold. Participants are selected through a casting call process where they present their ideas before a panel of product development experts and patent professionals.

Inventors who are chosen for the show will have their ideas commercialized, and in return receive a 20-year annuity on product sales. There is no cost to the inventor, and the show invests nearly $500,000 per product chosen.

The first season premieres this May on PBS, and follows the development of inventions chosen from last year's casting calls in Tampa, Columbia, S.C., Nashville, Atlanta and Charlotte.
