Filmmakers: Become a Red Bull Reporter

Red Bull Reporter is a nationwide search to find the best, young, music, culture and sports writers, filmmakers, presenters and photographers, giving them the opportunity of a lifetime; the chance to use
their skills and realise their passions as a Red Bull Reporter.



Red Bull Reporter has joined forces with Dave TV to offer a very special assignment giving aspiring reporters the chance to report on each regional heat of the Red Bull X-Fighters Jams Tour and the
London Final at Battersea Power Station.



The Jams events highlight the incredible skills of the Red Bull X-Fighters World Tour Local riders, hard at work bringing FMX to brand new countries and locations with the series of Red Bull X-Fighters Jams.



The Jams have already achieved cult status in the cities they have visited, with top riders from the regions joining some of the brightest stars from the international
scene, to put on insane shows in front of tens of thousands of people.



This summer Red Bull X-Fighters Jams will stop in four cities across the UK to give the crowd a taste of what will be going on in London Battersea on August 14th. The
four tour stops are:


· Newcastle on Saturday 26th June


· Nottingham on Friday 2nd July


· Brighton on Saturday 10th July


· Leeds on Saturday 17th July



So, the search is now on for 8 reporters, who will make up 4 separate teams - 2 with a photographer and writer, and 2 with a filmmaker and presenter. The selected
applicants will be partnered up with another Red Bull Reporter to cover one of
the regional stops of the Red Bull X-Fighters Jams tour in the UK.



Following the tour, the most creative reports from two of the four teams will be chosen to cover the final at Battersea Power Station on 14th August. The final will
take place against the awe-inspiring backdrop of Battersea Power Station to a
crowd of 30,000 people – a sensory overload and a coveted gig for aspiring
reporters to write about, snap, shoot or present at.


Check out the dedicated assignment page for full information on the assignment:

The reports produced by our chosen reporters will be showcased on Dave’s website www.joindave.co.uk as well as www.redbullreporter.com.



So if you’re keen to bag this amazing opportunity you should head over to www.redbullreporter.com to submit examples of your work, tagging your submission with “Red Bull
X-Fighters” in order to be in with a chance of being selected for one of the
teams.



Check out the assignments section of the site at http://www.redbullreporter.com/category/assignments for other opportunities available at the moment, for example if you’re a
filmmaker or presenter who is also a motocross fanatic you may want to apply
for the UK event of the MotoGP World Series on 20th June – just tag
your submission “MotoGP”.
