If you're 13 to 19 years old and live in England, Mediabox can give you the opportunity to develop and produce creative media projects for film, television, radio, online and multi media platforms.
Mediabox is for you to express your opinions, ideas and views, gain new skills and get your voices heard.
Mediabox offers three different types of grants ranging from £100 to £80,000 to create and distribute youth-led media projects that express young people's ideas and/or views in a creative way, using their preferred media platform.
YourFilm will select the four locations for outreach production days, from the range of contacts Mobile Media has established over its seven year history, including Youth Offending teams, Refugee and Asylum support, Young Carers, Special Educational Needs coordinators, the Youth Service and Economic Development. The groups will be working from the theme of OurTown. Members of YourFilm will be working with Digital Artists and Film makers to deliver the sessions.
There will be a virtual exhibition, and networking of young people's digital arts productions, from Swindon and Wiltshire between October 2007 - February 2008. The web-based interactive exhibition space will draw all the Virtually Reel project participants together, creating an online community for sharing feedback, production diaries, work in progress and final productions.
This virtual exhibition space will also showcase work produced by young people in Swindon and Wiltshire in the last 12 months, and YourFilm will have editorial control of this.
In addition, there will be physical networking and exhibition of young people's digital arts from Swindon and Wiltshire through a celebratory seminar in March 2008.
The physical exhibition and celebration will be a major installation premiering all the OurTown productions in one place in February 2008. This event will also comprise a young people-led seminar to share experience and outcomes with other young people and policy makers. (Create has close links with Swindon Cultural Partnership and the New Swindon Company, and all Arts Services business planning is strategically driven).
YourFilm has also identified a range of groups with whom they think the Future Creatives participants should network and share practice through the final seminar/exhibition launch.
