With 50 Million tweets a day, 45 million status updates and 24 hours of YouTube videos uploaded every minute... We'd also be looking for a better place to start a conversation.

VUZU's HEARD ON THE STREETS is looking for you.

If you have a conversation you think is worth sharing, here's your chance.
Tell us about your likes, your hates, your clothes, that new band that came out of nowhere or what it means to be young today.
If your idea gets us talking, we'll give you R10 000 to turn it into a 2 minute masterpiece.

But this isn't for mamparas! We need legit entries.
Now comes the business bit... Get your calculator, your friends, call in favours, and start at the beginning:

Figure out what your Convo is about, then think about how you want it to look. What, When, Which, Why, Who.
Jot it down, run it by a friend, see that Oscar with your name on it. Make a spreadsheet, draw pictures on paper or get your homie to type as you talk. Either way, we need to see the details of your master plan.

We also need a budget breakdown, where R those 10 big ones going? Are you renting a truck or getting your little sister to hold the boom? Nice heels for your star or dramatic lighting in your car? Break it down for us, if you need a few pointers we've even made a template that will tell you if your idea is in budget.

Vision isn't everything though, we need to see you can do it, so have a link to your show reel ready.
Don't have one? Easy fix, take a few videos that you've made before, cut them together, add some ill beats, head over to YouTube or Vimeo and upload it. While it's uploading, pose for a quick paparazzi shot so we can use this when you make it through to the chosen ten.

And that's it! Show reel, picture, concept, treatment, budget and you could see your very own hot HOTS on VUZU.

So let's get talking! Click the big button at the bottom of the page to enter...
