The Process

Preliminary Auditions: DVDs and You Tube links will be reviewed by a committee of judges. The acts selected to move forward to the live auditions will be based on their talent, ability, look and style.

Quarterfinals: The quarterfinals will be broken down into three Monday nights (3/29/10, 4/5/10, and 4/26/10). You will be asked to perform at one of those events. Each night, a panel of industry professional judges will choose four (4) contestants to move forward. The other four (4) contestants moving forward (8 in total per night) will be chosen by the audience. Audience members purchase votes at $1 per vote (remember this is a fundraiser).

Semifinals: In this stage, the industry judges from the Quarterfinals will choose one third of the winners to move forward and two thirds will be chosen by online voters. If you are chosen to move forward to the online voting portion of the competition, you will be designated a webpage on the event website to promote your talent and raise funds. Again $1 = 1 vote. As in the Quarterfinals, the industry judges will be involved in the selection process. Your video will be aired on your webpage from April 28-May 10, 2010. These votes will determine whether or not you will get to perform live at the Grand Finale at The Times Square Arts Center, so make sure that your friends and family vote for you!

The Grand Finale:The winning performances from the online portion will make up the competition’s Top 12 and will be announced on May 12. These contestants will be invited to participate in the live event at the Times Square Arts Center in New York City on Monday, May 24. The Top 12 will again have a webpage to promote your talent and raise funds ($1 = 1 vote) from May 12 to May 23. These votes will help to determine the Grand Prize winner at the Finale.

Additionally, please note that if you are voted into the Top 12 but are unable to participate in the live event in New York City, The Got Talent committee will choose your replacement from among the other finalists.
