The producers of Sony Ericsson's quirky YouTube-based pop show Pocket TV, hosted by Radio 1 gossip man Matt Edmondson, are looking for an aspiring telly person interested in being a runner for the next series of the programme, which will be filmed between 5 Apr and 9 Jul.
It is a paid London-based position, and will basically involve helping the production team as they interview all sorts of bands and music types. It will no doubt involve a lot of lifting flight cases and making coffees, but it will be a great opportunity to learn how TV is made, and to make all sorts of great contacts. The successful candidate will also be asked to keep a video blog of their experience that will be posted on YouTube.
Any aspiring telly type over the age of 18 and available in London from April should upload a sixty second clip demonstrating why they'd be a great runner to their own YouTube account, and then send a message to PocketTVshow via the video site with the words RUNNER COMPETITION in the subject line and the vid attached. The deadline to enter is 15 Mar. Three people will be selected to compete for the final job by taking part in a challenge set by the aforementioned Matt Edmondson.
