It is important that you read this notice so that you are aware of how and why we are using such information.

Why we are doing this and how you can participate
大象传媒 Scotland is hosting a media familiarisation day called Voices Unlocked for people from Black, Asian and ethnic minority communities who are interested in appearing as contributors or potential future talent on our digital, TV and radio output.
We are asking for individuals to apply from across the country to share with us your views, interests and stories about aspects of life in Scotland, including family life and parenting, religion and faith, politics, health, education, and work life.
We are asking you to apply by completing the uploader form with your contact details, a short personal video (two minutes or less in duration) talking about your interests or personal story and why you’d like to be part of Voices Unlocked.
The aim of the online familiarisation day is to offer an introduction to the media industry, as well as masterclasses with industry professionals including experienced programme-makers.
This is an opportunity to find out more about what it’s like to be a contributor and to gain an insight into what is involved when taking part in TV and radio interviews. We also want to give you the opportunity to meet producers and programme-makers.
Should your application and involvement in the familiarisation day be successful, we will make your contact details available to our journalists, producers and programme makers so that they can contact you about future involvement as a contributor in our programmes.
