Already have an AI drama? Submit sample episodes

Creators who already have material can submit two to three episodes of their own AI drama.

Shopee’s published requirements say each episode should use a vertical 9:16 format and run for approximately 30 to 90 seconds. AI must generate or enhance the primary visual, audio, and/or script elements. Name the AI tools used during registration. Develop the drama with a Filipino audience in mind.

Creators may use any AI platform to produce the episodes. Shopee lists production quality, storyline, and addictive quality (hook) among the criteria for entries.

Applicants on this route should put the episodes in a publicly accessible Google Drive folder and finish the submission steps on Shopee’s official campaign page.

Don’t have finished episodes yet? Pitch the idea

Shopee also has a route for creators who want to develop an AI drama but do not yet have completed sample episodes.

Applicants can submit a proposal, résumé, and portfolio.

  • A drama title
  • A theme intended for Filipino audiences
  • A synopsis of at least two sentences
  • A storyline and episode plan

What Shopee is looking for

For the sample-episode route, Shopee highlights three areas: production quality, storyline, and hook.

The format is short vertical episodes developed for Filipino audiences. The sample is a way to show storytelling, AI-assisted production, and a narrative that continues across more than one episode.

What selected creators get

Shopee says chosen applicants will receive a paid production contract to create an exclusive short drama series for Shopee.

For creators who enter through the proposal route, eligible applicants may also receive AI drama-generation credits to help develop their series.
