Call For Writers and A New Contest for Our Readers!

We’re looking for writers. If you have a story about something you saw filming or a location where a movie was filmed, drop us a line. It doesn’t have to be anything too formal. We are just looking to get some new ideas and new voices on the site. We won’t be able to compensate you but it may look good on a resume or make a good writing sample.

We are also starting a new contest this week. We ran a photo contest last year but just as it started so did the writer’s strike so it never went anywhere but we are going to give it another shot!

This contest is a bit different and a lot more fun! Since so many of you are using our tips to meet celebs we thought we might be able to get some free advertising out of it in the process! Here’s how it works, if you use one of our tips to meet a celebrity and get them to say Hi to On Location Vacations on video we will send you an iTunes Gift Card. It’s that easy. There are a few small stipulations. First, it has to be one of the stars of the movie or TV show. You can’t get a random extra or PA to do the video and think it will count, it won’t. You also have to upload it to YouTube and email the link to us, that will be the easiest way for us to get it up on the site.

So here’s an example: You bring your Flip to the set of Gossip Girl, meet Ed Westwick, get him to say something to On Location Vacations (you can be creative here, maybe get him to say something like OLV rocks or On Location Vacations is awesome, something like that) upload the video to YouTube and send us the link, it is that easy! And it might be a great excuse to start a conversation with a celebrity!

There is a bonus round: Most of you know that I love Joshua Jackson! If you are on the set of Fringe thanks to one of our tips and meet Josh and get him to say something directly to me (Christine) as well as saying something about OLV, you will get a bonus prize!

Good Luck and Have Fun!
