and educate. We're not looking to create a "Big Brother on Mars" - the
quality of the teams we select will always prevail over entertainment. Mars
One's Selection Process is lead by a team of astronaut crew selection
specialists that will maintain control of the selection process. Our aim is
to find the best group of candidates to potentially become the first humans
on Mars. By sharing this with the world via an exciting and inspiring TV or
web series we'd like to engage a global community and share our mission to
Mars with anyone who is interested in the next giant leap for mankind."

The five-day Selection Round Three will take place between August and
December 2017. The closing date for production proposal submissions is
February 1st, 2017 - 9 AM CET. Submitted proposals are judged on a number
of criteria, including but not limited to the international reach of the
project, style and format, interactive elements, credentials of the
production team, and budget. Suzanne Flinkenflögel, Director of
Communications of Mars One says, "We're looking for a production partner
whose strength lies in factual, non-scripted storytelling to an
international audience. Content proposals should find the right balance
between being inspiring, informative, educational, and entertaining."
