“We know there are many talented jewelry designers just waiting to be discovered and given their first big break,” said Jill Johnson, VP Marketing. “We decided to use our international platform to offer exposure for contestants, as well as an opportunity to help one lucky winner get started in the jewelry industry.”

Entrants must submit photos of finished jewelry they have designed and made that represents their unique design style, along with a headshot and video message explaining why they should be JTV’s first Rock Star Designer. 







The winner will receive:

                                 $5,000 cash prize
                                 One-on-one mentoring with JTV’s international buyers
                                 Segment on JTV featuring winner’s jewelry collection
                                 Exposure to 85 million households
                                 Introductions to industry insiders and manufacturers

100 jewelry designers will be selected from the applicant group by the judges’ panel, consisting of industry experts. The initial finalists will be posted online for public viewing and voting, which will narrow the group to 10 semi-finalists.

The panel of judges will narrow the group to 5 finalists who will be notified on May 29th and will receive an all-expense paid trip to JTV headquarters in Knoxville, Tennessee to compete in a reality show style competition. Designers will be filmed as they work their way through 4 unique design challenges. One finalist will be eliminated after each challenge until a winner emerges. The episodes will be aired on JTV.com/RockStar and promoted on the national broadcast network.
