A&E and executive producer Carlton Cuse are looking for some creative minds to check into the network’s upcoming Bates Motel.

The cabler and Cuse are looking for the public’s help in creating the 15-second opening title sequence for the upcoming Psycho prequel series, which will premiere in March.

“We want to give fans the chance to participate in the show,” Cuse said. “We’re looking for an awesome 15-second title sequence that captures the feel of Bates Motel — not as a slasher/horror show, but as a complex, character-based thriller.”

The contest begins today and runs on the series’ Facebook page through Jan. 3, with fans submitting their visual ideas through video submissions. Cuse will judge and ultimately select the winner that best represents the mood, tone and overall feel of the series. (via)

First look: Bates Motel
A first look at A&E’s upcoming Psycho prequel — featuring Finding Neverland‘s Freddie Highmore as teenage Norman Bates, Vera Farmiga as his ‘Mother! Oh God, Mother!’ and the infamous residence itself — has surfaced.
From executive producers Carlton Cuse (LOST) and Kerry Ehrin (Friday Night Lights, Parenthood), Bates Motel (slated to bow in 2013) gives a contemporary look at Norman’s formative years, including his storied relationship with his mother. As expected, the glimpse into their respective backstories will reveal how the future serial killer came to be.

A&E Network Orders Carlton Cuse Series ‘Bates Motel’ Direct to Series
A&E Network is checking into Bates Motel without even ordering a pilot, it was announced today. The network is putting in a 10-episode order of the Alfred Hitchcock Psycho-inspired series from Universal Television, with a 2013 premiere planned. Carlton Cuse and Kerry Ehrin will serve as executive producers. Cuse wrote almost three dozen episodes of Lost and served as executive produce on the show. Ehrin was a writer and producer recently on Parenthood and Friday Night Lights. Roy Lee, John Middleton Jr, and producer Mark Wolper originally put Bates Motel together. As A&E announced earlier this year, the series goes into the story before Psycho. With a contemporary touch, Bates Motel looks at the twisted relationship between serial killer-to-be Norman Bates and his mother Norma.

Carlton Cuse, who along with Damon Lindelof executive produced and acted as showrunners of ABC’s Lost, is boarding A&E’s The Bates Motel.
A&E is developing the series, being produced by Mark Wolper and Roy Lee, as a prequel to Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho. The 1960 horror classic featured an off-his-rocker motel manager named Norman Bates who murdered occasional boarders while under the watch of his even-more-psychotic mother.
Bates Motel aims to tell the story of a young Bates and how his life with his deranged mother and her lover unhinged his mind, eventually turning him into a serial killer. It has been described as a cross between Twin Peaks and Smallville.
If the show is picked up to series, Cuse will executive produce and oversee the writing and production what is being envisioned intially as a six-episode “event” that would lead to additional seasons. It also marks the first “genre” TV project for Cuse since his acclaimed run on Lost.
Kerry Ehrin, who worked on Friday NIght Lights and Parenthood, also is joining Bates Motel as a writer/EP and will work with Cuse.
A&E is hoping the series can do for it what zombie drama The Walking Dead did for AMC, generating top ratings while initiating online water-cooler conversations. (via THR)
