In brief Design South Africa

British Council, Twyg are looking for 6 storytellers from sub-Saharan Africa

The British Council and Twyg are calling for multimedia storytellers from six countries in sub-Saharan Africa: Malawi, Zambia, Mauritius, Mozambique, Zimbabwe and South Africa. The call is open to videographers, photographers, multimedia storytellers and audio artists from those countries.

The successful candidates will be invited to participate in a workshop in Cape Town, where storytellers will share ideas, explore creative storytelling and connect with each other and other professionals.

Interested storytellers can send three examples of their published work in English (max. two pages/1,000 words each story and/or video recording and/or audio and/or photographs) to az.oc.gywt@eikcaJ cc az.oc.gywt@odnetuR. You may also send your CV.
