Taunton Youth Culture & Arts Festival 2020
Right Here, Right Now!
A FREE Summer multi-media and sound project
Are you interested in sound and film? Are you a performing artist? Are you a creative?
Arts Taunton through the Tyca Festival invites you to participate in the making of a video and sound installation.
The finished project will be displayed on the Tyca website and projected onto a public space in Taunton for all to enjoy.
We want to create a piece which is a mixture of spoken word, song, film and artwork, We are looking for visual artists, filmmakers, musicians, dancers and spoken word artists to collaborate in both the concept and creation of this piece, bringing their unique talents.
The project will run from the week beginning 10th August and end 28th August.
Founded in 2012, Blue Weasel has worked with young singers and musicians, participating in all sorts of concerts, events and collaborations with other groups, winning awards and critical acclaim for the quality and verve of its performances. More recently, its scope has widened to embrace exciting, bespoke and one-off multi-media projects, including composition, film and soundscape.
Lisa Tustian trained as a professional singer, and has had wide-ranging and varied career as a performer and singing teacher, workshop leader, course facilitator and musical director for professional and amateur musical theatre. She has also worked extensively as director and animateur in small and large scale community performances,
She is passionate about encouraging young people to explore their voice - physical, expressive and creative - and is very excited to be leading this project for Blue Weasel and TYCA
