The principal idea behind Words Matter is to highlight the fact that most art-forms begin with the written word, a skill and talent that rarely gets priority focus in today's youth programs.
If you're 12-22 years old, in school, live in Masachusetts, and
an aspiring writer,
film maker, musician or choreographer who
would love the
chance to get published or produce your creative
vision into
a finished product, then read on!
Simply submit your "written" essay, screenplay, song lyrics or
dance video treatment. A panel of real celebrity and industry
judges will see your work and pick three winners in each category.
The winners will receive all the resources they need to turn their
words into real productions!
We hope you'll take a chance and help us illustrate why your
WORDS MATTER!!
Every young adult who submits will get a free Warm2Kids.com membership which provides them with references,
direct access to celebrity role models, discounts for popular stores and brands, and up to the minute news teens can
relate to. Words Matter will provide the state's most talented youth with access to valuable resources, real world
experiences, and open doors that will help them reach their creative goals.
To be eligible for Words Matter, you must be between the ages of 12-22, and currently enrolled at a middle school,
high school or college/university in Massachusetts.
All submissions will be reviewed by industry judges and shared on the Words Matter website, Facebook and YouTube.
Winners will be announced by December 2009.
Enter today and help Words Matter ambassadors Brian White and Keisha Whittaker realize their vision for "EDUTAIMENT!".
