Hey everyone - here's a project I'll be field-producing for. If you, your friends, your relatives or your friends of relatives are between 16-22 and have a passion for music, film or both, please feel free to pass this on to them! Make sure to mention my name in the application.
Thanks! Good Luck!
Wanted to introduce you all to our newest youth-creative platform!
Our Kyocera All Access Youth Music Documentary will enable young-people ages
16-22 to get behind the camera going 'all-access' to create documentary of
the Virgin Mobile music fest experience.
Guided by the pros, youth will use their voice and creativity to capture the
energy of the festival both on-stage and off. Their hour-long documentary
will take music fans on an exclusive insider’s tour of the Fest, giving them
the inside story on the musicians, the live music, and the festival’s
support for youth-homeless – all from the voice of youth.
Bands to be interviewed include Public Enemy, Taking Back Sunday, Blink 182
and others. And the doc will be featured on IFC and in-flight on Virgin
Airways!
There is no experience necessary to apply (we never require that), and
there's no cost. We'll supply all travel and accommodations to the festival
/ documentary headquarters in Maryland. Production occurs from August
26-August 30, 2009.
Like our other programs (like Fresh Films and Girls in the Directors Chair)
this program is also geared to empower and transform youth lives through
engaging them in creativity. By providing hands-on experiences, heightened
responsibility to succeed and an opportunity to express themselves, we find
that youth confidence and sense of self soar.
Spread the word. But Hurry though -- early deadline is 8/10, final deadline
is 8/17 at www.allaccessdocs.com
Cheers!
