Key Elements
The ASHBA Frekuency TV show and event includes these key elements
all of which are filmed as part of the show:
- 12 episodes including a one-hour grand finale. The show format is what we describe as “Real Docs” – reality-based documentary style storytelling, presented in a fly-on-the-wall, behind-the-scenes style of filming.
- Nationwide talent search for five unique vocalists across the pop, latin, country, rock, and hip hop / rap genres.
- Online voting for vocalist selection engages the prospective fan base early, and throughout the competition and filming, with registrant casting currently estimated at 50,000. Online voting results in 20 finalists.
- Our contest technology platform partner is Orbiiit (Orbiiit.com) who’s voting platform mechanism involves contestant registrants promoting across their social media profiles (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Twitter (X), etc.) and asking for their community’s support. This activity results in the organic creation of a massive fan, and likely show viewer, base which, in turn, promotes to their friends and family through word-of-mouth. We currently estimate 1,000,000 voters.
- The 5 finalists determined in the online voting phase will result in one grand prize winner selected by a panel of four judges led by ASHBA.
- The production of one song by ASHBA, who will also perform with the grand prize winner in the finale.
