Description

PopShack is a brand new entertainment network for teenagers from all over the world. It encourages you to #FindYourVoice - it’s not just about singing covers on YouTube, or even about singing itself!

PopShack has been working with three teenagers from Hackney who have produced spoken word pieces in response to the hashtag #FindYourVoice

PopShack would like IdeasTap members to respond to these poems with treatments for accompanying moving image (film or animation). The winners will get a budget of £300 to produce their ideas.

Click to listen to short extracts of the poems on SoundCloud:

Ibukun Badamus-Olanrewaju – Find Your Voice

Keema Toussaint – Change

Victoria Ayodeji – Barbie

 

The winning films will be showcased on Popshack’s and IdeasTap’s YouTube channels.

Fifteen shortlisted IdeasTap members will also get to attend a workshop with an experienced video maker on how to develop ideas, put together and pitch a treatment.

The judges are looking for originality, imagination, sensitivity, and relevance to subject and context. In other words, something like this.

  • I can't seem to submit. I keep getting the error message - 'Please provide answers for: 'Explain why you chose the track you’ve responded to (100 words)'
    Even though I have written my explanation in the box.

  • How long will the film be? Will it be the same length of the spoken word? Will the spoken words will work as voiceover for the film, or just a guideline?

    • The film should accompany the spoken word piece - so yes, a similar length. Thanks!
