Film your Oxjam show to Get Seen Get Heard on MTV
As part of Oxjam, MTV launched a brand new talent initiative called 'Get Seen, Get Heard' - calling out to the nation's up-and-coming music stars to get involved in the festival for the chance of recognition on MTV.
Bands and artists playing at Oxjam gigs throughout the UK filmed their performances and uploaded them to a specially created MTV website. The most popular Oxjam acts, as voted by MTV viewers, are now appearing on MTV in a series of Get Seen, Get Heard profiles. Over the coming weeks the 22 finalists will be whittled down to a final five who will each receive a mentoring session with a music industry expert. The pinnacle of the initiative will see each of the five finalists performing at a series of special gigs to mark the beginning of Oxjam 2007, details of which will be confirmed at a later date.
Now, Oxjam and MTV are working together to make Oxjam even bigger and better - so start your bid for fame today by taking part in Oxjam.
You can see details of the 22 Get Seen, Get Heard finalists and watch videos of their Oxjam performances on the Get Seen, Get Heard website at www.mtv.co.uk/oxjam or catch the band profiles on MTV channels now!
