If you’ve got the talent, MTV and the MTV Africa Music Awards 2015 might just be your break. For the first time ever, MTV are offering you the chance to come and prove yourself at the biggest music event in Africa – the MAMAs 2015. The awards will return to Durban and will be hosted on the 18 July. MTV are now on the lookout for four of the most talented young people around to come and help make the best show in Africa, even better.
So who are they looking for?
– A dancer with the moves and charisma to light up the stage
– A photographer with a knack for capturing the perfect moment
– A social media journalist who knows just what MTV Base’s audience wants
– A videographer with the skills to work in the high pressured, live environment
Each winner will get the chance to come to the MAMAs 2015, work as part of the MTV team, and get an industry mentor. Your work might even be featured on-air! Here’s what the MTV team want you to do to enter:
DANCER
We’re looking for our dancer who’ll get to show off their moves on stage. To score this life changing opportunity, upload a 15 second clip to Instagram showing us the kind of moves we could expect to see from you in Durban. Hashtag your video with #MAMAdancer and tag @MTV Breaks.
CAMERA PERSON
We’re on the hunt for a talented camera person to come and work with the MTV Africa production team to capture content for the What Went Down MAMA 2015 documentary. To score this opportunity, upload a 15 second clip to Instagram that best showcases your camera skills with the hashtag #MAMAcamera and tag it @MTVBreaks.
PHOTOGRAPHER
As our photographer, you’ll represent MTV Base on the red carpet, snapping the images to be used for MTV’s associated Africa platforms. To prove to us that you’re the best person for this job, capture an awesome action shot and upload it to Instagram with the hashtag #MAMAphotographer and tagged @MTVBreaks.
SOCIAL MEDIA JOURNALIST
We’re searching for someone to be the voice of MTV and MTV Base across our social media platforms during the MAMA 2015. To show us that you’ve got what it takes, tweet a commentary to either your favourite MTV music video or MTV show. We want to see at least five tweets about it, so we can get a taste of your creative style. Hashtag every tweet #MTVBreaks and #SM.
The closing date is 17th June.
