Health Media and The Australian Music Week (AMW) have announced they'll be teaming up to present Captured: Australia which returns for its third edition.
The music video project pairs up local bands and artists with emerging film-makers to create a short film or music video under five minutes.
The completed videos are then shown to the public where they can vote on their favourite projects via an online campaign — the past two editions of the Captured project were seen by over 500,000 people in each year.
This year will see the campaign expand beyond focusing on artists living in NSW to go nationwide.
Meanwhile the AMW will hold its music summit November 18-22 in Cronulla and the first round of speakers for the event have been announced.
Confirmed to appear at the summit include a number of some of the country's leading music figures including Gregg Donovan (Wonderlick), Katie Rynne (Select), Nick Yates (Unified), Karen Lee Goody (Entertainment Consulting), Johann Ponniah (I Oh You), Maggie Collins (Fans Creative Management/triple j), Basil Cook (ABC Music), Vanessa Picken (Comes With Fries), Damian Costin (123), Chrissie Vincent (Chrissie Vincent Publicity & Management), Scott Crawford (PledgeMusic), Hazel Savage (Moment Media) Scott Mesiti (MJR Presents & Cross Section), Jess Beston (Tiny Monster Management), Stuart Coupe (Laughing Outlaw Records) and more.
Tickets are on sale now — to purchase, as well to apply for the Captured project, head to the AMW website for more details.
