Seeking Creative Content for Global New Media Site

Dear friends and artists,

I’m developing a new project in collaboration with various international agencies
and artists that blends the creative world with the humanitarian world
around the issue of women/motherhood/maternal health.

Briefly, it’s a new media “mash up” site that houses license-free music,
film and spoken word clips by participating artists representing diverse
genres, cultures and regions around the world. Users of the site will be able to
mash up these clips to create their own advocacy PSAs. The site will be
programmed so that these PSA’s can be forwarded to networks, policymakers
and development institutions. It will be focused around the UN’s Millennium
Development Goals (MDGs) and will be promoted extensively around the
international community starting in the fall.

We’re looking for creative content contributions of all genres, styles, etc
by artists including filmmakers, musicians, DJs, poets, who work at the local and/or international level.

In exchange for your contribution, we will promote you, your work
and your website, distribute your promotional materials at various events
and strive to make linkages between two worlds which don’t communicate with
each other as often as they should, in my opinion.

If you or someone you may know is interested, please contact me at lisa@governessfilms.com and I’‘ll forward more information.

Thanks!
