Open Call : The MASTERPIECE Video Diary

The WGBH Lab Open Call is an invitation for you to make a completed video short and share it with the world!

This April, WGBH Lab is partnering with MASTERPIECE to launch The MASTERPIECE Video Diary Open Call, inspired by The Diary of Anne Frank, airing April 11th on PBS in recognition of Holocaust Remembrance Day. We’re asking Youth Media Makers, ages 13 and up, to create an inspiring video or audio diary entry about themselves, and post it to the Lab: http://lab.wgbh.org/masterpiece.

Our hope is to stimulate and nurture youth self-expression using media. We have asked those who might submit to consider intolerance in their creations by telling us how they overcome instances of bullying or being disrespected for the way they look, think, or for what they believe, and to tell the world how they or someone they know might have handled it.

Entries should be no longer than 3 minutes, and submitted before May 31st, 2010. Entries received this month may be part of a short video piece The Lab and MASTERPIECE are producing to air at the end of The Diary of Anne Frank on April 11th. All pieces submitted before May 31st will be considered for future broadcast opportunities.

Visit us at: http://lab.wgbh.org/masterpiece, to learn more.
