Youth Music is looking to recruit a group of talented Videographers, Photographers, Social Media Managers, Journalists and Presenters to create content for us during this year’s Give a Gig Week (27 March – 5 April).

All content creators will be invited to attend a free one day workshop on Saturday 14^th March, 11am – 7pm in London, with a line-up of industry professionals working at the forefront of content creation and social media. They’ll hear from experts working with companies like SBTV, Nike, 1Xtra, Afro Nation and young entrepreneurs who’ve turned side hustles into recognised brands. Attendees will also have the opportunity to get interactive feedback on their work and meet other creators taking part in Youth Music projects around the country.

Content creators will then be commissioned in various paid roles (including social media, blogging, videography, photography, interviewing) at events throughout Give a Gig Week 2020. Artists confirmed to play so far include Jake Bugg and Camelphat with more high profile artists to be released over the next few weeks alongside emerging talent from Youth Music’s 300+ projects.

Who we are looking for

• Young people aged 18-25 who are involved in a Youth Music funded project (or have been in last 3 years).
• Passionate content creators with some experience and track record but want to build up their portfolio.

Must be available to attend the workshop on 14 March and available to work some evenings during 27 March – 5 April
