Details of IFAS.
Are you an artist? A movie director? A sound engineer? A crazy geek? Or just a creative mind?
Are you ready to experiment and collaborate on a multidisciplinary project?
IFAS is looking for artists from the audio and/or visual fields (cinema, theatre, animation, digital, music&sound, visual arts, spoken words etc…) as well as digital creatives (programmer, geeks etc…) to enter its first artistic residency in new media!
The team of creatives will work during the month of October under the mentoring of French multimedia production experts, to give life to the story of a South African writer.
Their collaboration, mixing various fields, will allow to illustrate, animate and give voice to an original story, using WhatsApp as a medium and creative tool, and will lead to the creation of a “WhatsApp book”.
Due to the COVID-19 crisis, this collaborative residency will happen remotely and therefore participants from any region of South Africa can participate.
This is the second call for application regarding the Creative WhatsApp Residency. The first call for application was aimed at writers and can be found on that link: Innovative Storytelling Residency.
Successful applicants from both calls will work together during the residency.
The residency covers:
– residency allowance of 5000ZAR
– data bundles
The WhatsApp Book will be presented to the public in November 2020 during the Novembre Numérique programme.
Deadline:
September 15th. 2020
How to Apply:
Applicants should:
– be English-speaking,
– be South-African citizens or permanent residents,
– be willing to work with digital mediums,
– open to collaboration and mentorship,
– be available to develop the project during the month of October 2020.
