ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ TALENT


Don't slip through the net - take your chance to be a presenter in the digital age

The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ is offering five individuals the chance to become dedicated interactive presenters working on some of the most innovative programmes on the world wide web.

The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s unique initiative, ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Talent, wants to find the interactive presenters of the future.


On offer are five six-month contracts to be given to the entrants who impress the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s experienced judges the most.

If you think you can help bring the digital age alive and communicate to all age groups and audiences via the net, and are a user of interactive services, text messages, chat rooms and forums, then you could soon find yourself reporting from the latest blockbuster premiere or the hottest gig in town.

If you have enthusiasm, energy, commitment, charisma, and an inquiring mind, then visit the Virgin Megastore in Cardiff this weekend to record your own audition and email it back to the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½.


A top team of ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ producers will be on hand to guide you though the online audition system.


Drop into the store between noon and 5.00pm on Sunday (21 July) and 10.00am and 6.00pm on Monday and Tuesday.

The selected presenters will become the new faces of ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½i. They will help users navigate and access content across all platforms, as well as helping demystify all the technology and jargon.


They will do everything from facilitating live chats on the web, to acting as a reporter for the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s entertainment site.


But, perhaps most importantly, the selected candidates will help define the role of ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½i presenter - from now, well into the future.

Angie Stephenson, ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Talent Executive, says: "This is a great chance for people to get involved right at the heart of the digital revolution.


"There is no doubt that people need special skills to be a web broadcaster and hopefully with these type of auditions, we can find some of BritainÂ’s brightest and best new stars."

So if you are over 18, can talk into a camera with confidence, explain the unexplainable with clarity and passion and have a burning desire to see yourself on PC's all over the world, then record a short audition tape and see if the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ pick you to become one of their cyber celebrities.

For more information log onto the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Talent website - . You get full instructions and details of all the other schemes in this year's ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Talent initiative.

The search for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½i presenters forms part of this year's ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Talent campaign which launched in March for the third year to find and develop new broadcast talent in the UK.
