Electric December is Bristol’s annual online advent calendar and 2006 marks the eighth year of this unique event. Digital presents are put together by a range of contributors including many local organisations, businesses and educational settings.
Electric December is inviting contributions from the Connecting Bristol Momentum group for the last few remaining calendar windows. This may involve repurposing existing digital content – films, games or interactive pieces – or creating an entirely new piece in the limited time available (the official deadline is October 11th!). This is a high-exposure event, with contributors including the BBC, Aardmans and At-Bristol to name but a few.
If you are interested, or would simply like to know more, then:
• Visit the Electric December website to look at past year’s calendars and to read the 2006 contributors resources section
• Send an email with your idea/suggestion to Liz Milner at electricdecember@watershed.co.uk
• Come along to the workshop here at the Watershed at 6.30pm on the 21st September to meet other contributors and discuss ways to get involved
And an additional note for potential freelancers:
We are always on the lookout for freelancers with interactive Flash skills that can help with creating interfaces for ED presents. Please get in touch if you have these skills and may be available for sporadic work during October/November!
